 [Verse]
 A                C#m
 Poor old Johnny Ray
         D                          A                 E
 Sounded sad upon the radio moved a million hearts in mono
 A            C#m
  Our mothers cried
 D                             A        E
 Sang along, who'd blame them
 A                               C#m
 You're grown (you're grown up), so grown (so grown up)
 D                             A        E
 Now I must say more than ever            (come on Eileen)
 A           C#m            D
 Toora-loora-toora-loo-rye-aye
            A                  E
 and we can sing just like our fathers

 [Chorus]
 B                    F#
 Come on Eileen oh, I swear (well he means)
         C#m              E      F#
 at this moment you mean everything
      B                     F#
 With you in that dress, my thoughts (I confess)
          C#m             E     F#
 verge on dirty, ah come on Eileen

 [Verse]
 A                  C#m
 These people round here
             D
 wear beaten-down eyes sunk in smoke-dried faces,
       A                    E
 so resigned to what their fate is
     A                    C#m
 but not us (no never) no not us (no never)
 D                                A       E
 we are far too young and clever            (remember)
 A           C#m            D
 Toora-loora-toora-loo-rye-aye
              A                E
 Eileen, I'll hum this tune forever

 [Chorus]
 B                     F#
 Come on, Eileen, oh I swear (well he means)
         C#m                 E     F#
 Ah come on, let's take off everything
      B                   F#
 That pretty red dress, Eileen (tell him yes)
          C#m                  E     F#
 Ah, come on, let's, ah, come on, Eileen
 B
 Please…
 (half-speed, getting gradually faster)
 
 [Chorus]
 B                              D#m
  (Come on, Eileen, too-loo rye-aye, come on)
                      E                                      B       F#
 (Eileen, too-loo rye-aye, toora, toora-too-loora)
                      Now you have grown, now you have shown, oh, Eileen
 B                                                  D#m
         (Come on, Eileen, too-loo rye-aye, come on)
 Come on, Eileen, these things they are real, and I know
                     E                               B                       F#
 (Eileen, too-loo rye-aye, toora, toora-too-loora)
    how you feel       Now I must say more than ever, things round here have changed
 B                              D#m                                 E                            B     F#
  (Come on, Eileen, too-loo rye-aye, come on)  (Eileen, too-loo rye-aye, toora, toora-too-loora)
 Too-ra             loo-ra      too-ra                      loo-rye-aye
 
 [Chorus]
 B                    F#
 Come on Eileen oh, I swear (well he means)
         C#m              E      F#
 at this moment you mean everything
      B                     F#
 With you in that dress, my thoughts (I confess)
          C#m             E     F#
 verge on dirty, ah come on Eileen
