RITORNELLO
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”
STROFA 1
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?
MI
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 RE
She got Arthur on the table with Johnny riding a shotgun
FA#m LA
Chatted some more, one more drink at the bar
MI
Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance
RITORNELLO

RE LA MI FA#m
With my pretty little Galway Girl
RE LA MI FA#m
You’re my pretty little Galway Girl
STROFA 2
FA#m LA
You know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at pool
MI RE
And then she kissed me like there was nobody else in the room
FA#m LA
As last orders were called was when she stood on the stool
MI
After dancing the céili singing to trad tunes
FA#m LA
I never heard Carrickfergus ever sung so sweet
MI RE
A cappella in the bar using her feet for a beat
FA#m LA
Oh, I could have that voice playing on repeat for a week
MI
And in this packed out room swear she was singing to me

STROFA 3
FA#m LA
And now we’ve outstayed our welcome and it’s closing time
MI RE
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 RE
To finish some Doritos and another bottle of wine
FA#m LA
I swear I’m gonna put you in a song that I write
MI
About a Galway Girl and a perfect night
