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