Galway Girl
picopod.fm/96neh9
CHORUS
F#m A
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
E D
But she fell in love with an English man
F#m A
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
E
Said, “Baby, I just want to dance”
VERSE 1
F#m A
I met her on Grafton street right outside of the bar
E D
She shared a cigarette with me while her brother played the guitar
F#m A
She asked me what does it mean, the Gaelic ink on your arm?
E
Said it was one of my friend’s songs, do you want to drink on?
F#m A
She took Jamie as a chaser, Jack for the fun
E D
She got Arthur on the table with Johnny riding a shotgun
F#m A
Chatted some more, one more drink at the bar
E
Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance
CHORUS
D A
You know, she played the fiddle in an Irish band
E D
But she fell in love with an English man
D A
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
E
Said, “Baby, I just want to dance”
D A E F#m
With my pretty little Galway Girl
D A E F#m
You’re my pretty little Galway Girl
VERSE 2
F#m A
You know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at pool
E D
And then she kissed me like there was nobody else in the room
F#m A
As last orders were called was when she stood on the stool
E
After dancing the céili singing to trad tunes
F#m A
I never heard Carrickfergus ever sung so sweet
E D
A cappella in the bar using her feet for a beat
F#m A
Oh, I could have that voice playing on repeat for a week
E
And in this packed out room swear she was singing to me
CHORUS
D A
You know, she played the fiddle in an Irish band
E D
But she fell in love with an English man
D A
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
E
Said, “Baby, I just want to dance”
D A
With my pretty little Galway Girl
E F#m D A
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
E F#m D A
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
E F#m D A E F#m
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
VERSE 3
F#m A
And now we’ve outstayed our welcome and it’s closing time
E D
I was holding her hand, her hand was holding mine
F#m A
Our coats both smell of smoke, whisky and wine
E
As we fill up our lungs with the cold air of the night
F#m A
I walked her home then she took me inside
E D
To finish some Doritos and another bottle of wine
F#m A
I swear I’m gonna put you in a song that I write
E
About a Galway Girl and a perfect night
CHORUS
F#m A
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
E D
But she fell in love with an English man
F#m A
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
E
Said, “Baby, I just want to dance”
D A
With my pretty little Galway Girl
E F#m D A
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
E F#m D A
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
E F#m D A E F#m
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
