[Verse 1]
---------------------
C                   Em
Poor old Johnnie Ray
        F
Sounded sad upon the radio
        C                 G
Moved a million hearts in mono
C                 Em
 Our mothers cried
F
Sang along, who'd blame them?
C G C
    You've grown
Em
So grown
   F
Now I must say more than ever
C G C             Em              F
    Too ra loora, too ra loo rye, ay

[Verse 2]
---------------------
C                      Em
These people round here
                  F
Were beaten down, eyes sunk in smoke dried face
             C                    G
They're so resigned to what their fate is
    C
But not us
    Em
But not us
  F
We are far too young and clever
C G C              Em              F
    Too ra loo ra, too ra loo rye, ay
           C                G
And you'll hum this tune forever

[Outro]
---------------------
C     C           F           Dm            Am
 Oh believe me if all those endearing young charms
       Em         G        C
That I gaze on so fondly today
        C        F             Dm         Am
Were to suddenly leave you, or fly in the night
          Em          G           C
Just like fairy gifts gone in the sky
