Fa#m La
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
Mi Re
But she fell in love with an English man
Fa#m La
Kissed her on the neck and then
I took her by the hand
Mi
Said baby I just want to dance
Fa#m La
I met her on Grafton street right outside of the bar
Mi Re
She shared a cigarette with me while her brother
played the guitar
Fa#m La
She asked me what does it mean the Gaelic
ink on your arm?
Fa#m
Said it was one of my friend's songs
do you want to drink on?
Fa#m La
She took Jamie as a chaser, Jack for the fun
Mi
She got Arthur on the table
Re
with Johnny riding as a shotgun
Fa#m La
Chatted some more, one more drink at the bar
Mi
Then put Van on the jukebox
got to dance, you know
Fa#m La
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
Mi Re
But she fell in love with an English man
Fa#m
Kissed her on the neck and
La
then I took her by the hand
Mi
Said baby I just want to dance
Fa#m La Mi Re
With my pretty little Galway Girl
Fa#m La Mi Re
You’re my pretty little Galway Girl
Fa#m
You know she beat me at darts
La
and then she beat me at pool
Mi
And then she kissed me like there
Fa#m
was nobody else in the room
Fa#m
As last orders were called
La
was when she stood on the stool
Mi
After dancing to Ce'ila' singing to trad tunes
Fa#m La
I never heard Carrickfergus ever sung so sweet
Mi Fa#m
A capella in the bar using her feet for the beat
Fa#m
Oh, I could have that voice
La
playing on repeat for a week
Mi
And in this packed out room swear she was singing to me
Fa#m La
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
Mi Re
But she fell in love with an English man
Fa#m
Kissed her on the neck
La
and then I took her by the hand
Mi
Said baby I just want to dance
Fa#m La
With my pretty little Galway Girl
Mi Re Fa#m La
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
Mi Re Fa#m La
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
Mi Re Fa#m La Mi Re
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
Fa#m La
Now we’ve outstayed our welcome and it’s closing time
Mi Fa#m
I was holding her hand, her hand was holding mine
Fa#m La
Our coats both smell of smoke, whisky and wine
Mi
As we fill up our lungs with the cold air of the night
Fa#m La
I walked her home then she took me inside
Mi Fa#m
Finish some Doritos and another bottle of wine
Fa#m La
I swear I’m going to put you in a song that I write
Mi
About a Galway Girl and a perfect night
Fa#m La
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
Mi Re
But she fell in love with an English man
Fa#m La
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
Mi
Said baby I just want to dance
Fa#m La
With my pretty little Galway Girl
Mi Re Fa#m La
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
Mi Re Fa#m La
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
Mi Re Fa#m La Mi Re
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
Fa#m La Mi Re 4v
