Verse 1:
 C   F     C        Am          C   G7
Over in Kil-larney, many years a-go
   C      F       C            D7                 Dm7   G7
Me mother sang a song to me in tones so sweet and low
       C      F      C        Am                    C
Just a simple little ditty in her good 'ould' Irish way
        F                 C                   D7           Dm7   G7
And I'd give the world if she could sing that song to me to-day

Chorus:
C      F      C        C7  F             Gbdim
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo--ral,    Too-ra-loo-ra-li,
C      F      C        D7                   G7
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, hush, now, don't you cry
C      F      C        C7  F             Gbdim
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral,     Too-ra-loo-ra-li
C      F      C                  D7    Fm   Gm  C   G7
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, that's an Irish lull-a - by

Verse 2:
C   F     C        Am          C   G7
Oft in dreams I wander to that cot again,
   C       F      C             D7               Dm7   G7
I feel her arms a-huggin' me as when she held me then
      C        F       C             Am            C
And I hear her voice a-hummin' to me as in days of yore,
         F               C              D7             Dm7   G7
When she used to rock me fast asleep outside the cabin door

Chorus:
C      F      C        C7  F             Gbdim
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo--ral,    Too-ra-loo-ra-li,
C      F      C        D7                   G7
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, hush, now, don't you cry
C      F      C        C7  F             Gbdim
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral,     Too-ra-loo-ra-li
C      F      C                  D7    Fm   Gm  C   G7
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, that's an Irish lull-a - by
