I was heading home for the weekend but I missed the evening train 
Am                                 C 
Stranded and left standing outside Connlly in the rain 
  G                                     D 
I called my old friend Tommy, "have you room for me to stay?" 
          Am                                   C D G 
He said, "make your way to Greenhills, get the 77A" 

 
  G                                  D 
I paid my fare and went upstairs and grabbed the last seat left 
   Am                                 C 
It wasn't that she stole my heart but pure and downright theft 
    G                          D 
For sat beside me was a vision I had never known 
    Am                             C      D      G 
She didn't notice me, her head was buried in her phone 

 
      C                  G              Em 
Well, I'm no scholar but it's not every day 
                                 C  D 
You see an angel upstairs on the 77A 
      C                G             Em 
Well, I'm no saint but I knew right away 
  C        C/B     Am            C D G 
I died and gone to heaven on the 77A

  G                          D 
I tried a little small talk, asked her where she'd been 
    Am                                  C 
She said she'd been to feed the ducks suburban Stephen's Green 
      G                            D 
But I wasn't even listening, I was deep inside a trance 
Am                               C        D      G 
Trying to figure out how I could take her to the dance 
 

 
      C                  G              Em

"Oh hey, and just get on with it if you're going to ask me out!" 
    C                                  G              D 
She said, "I'll have a vino and you'll have a pint of stout" 
   Em   D/F# G            Am     C/B    C 
We ran downstairs, jumped off at Camden Street 
    C                              D 
For sure, a nicer girl you'd never meet 

 
    G                                             D 
The times since then have come and gone, and I've seen a lot of life 
Am                       C 
15 years ago I made that lovely girl me wife 
   G                              D 
We started a tradition that we've kept until this day 
Am                               C D G 
Once a week I'll meet her on the 77A
