Chorus:
F#m A
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
E Dadd9 D
But she fell in love with an English man,
Dadd9
Kissed her on the neck
A
And then I took her by the hand,
E
Said, “Baby, I just wanna dance.”
F#m
I met her on Grafton Street
A
Right outside of the bar,
E
She shared a cigarette with me
D
While her brother played the guitar.
F#m
She asked me what does it mean,
A
The Gaelic ink on your arm?
E
Said it was one of my friend’s songs,
Aadd9
Do you want to drink on?
F#m A
She took Jamie as a chaser,
Jack for the fun,
E
She got Arthur on the table
D Bm7
With Johnny riding as shot gun,
Chatted some more,
A
One more drink at the bar,
E
Then put Van on the jukebox,
Got up to dance, you know.
Chorus:
D A
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
E D
But she fell in love with an English man,
Kissed her on the neck
A
And then I took her by the hand,
E
Said, “Baby, I just wanna dance
D A E F#m
With my pretty little Galway Girl.”
D A E F#m
You’re my pretty little Galway Girl.
F#m
You know, she beat me at darts
A
And then she beat me at pool,
E
And then she kissed me
D
Like there was nobody else in the room.
F#m
As last orders were called,
A
Was when she stood on the stool
E
After dancing to céilí,
Aadd9
Singing to trad tunes.
F#m
I never heard Carrickfergus
A
Ever sung so sweet,
E
A cappella in the bar
D
Using her feet for a beat,
Bm7
Oh, I could have that voice
A
Playing on repeat for a week,
E
And in this packed out room swear
She was singing to me, you know.
Chorus:
D A
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
E D
But she fell in love with an English man,
Kissed her on the neck
A
And then I took her by the hand,
E
Said, “Baby, I just wanna dance.”
D A
My pretty little Galway Girl,
E F#m
My, my, my, my,
D A
My, my, my Galway Girl,
E F#m
My, my, my, my,
D A
My, my, my Galway Girl,
E F#m
My, my, my, my,
D A E F#m
My, my, my Galway Girl.
F#m
And now we’ve outstayed our welcome
A
And it’s closing time,
E
I was holding her hand,
D
Her hand was holding mine.
F#m
Our coats both smell
A
Of smoke, whisky and wine
E
As we fill up our lungs
With the cold air of the night.
F#m
I walked her home,
A
Then she took me inside,
E
Finish some Doritos
D
And another bottle of wine.
Bm7
I swear I’m going to put you
A
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 Dadd9
But she fell in love with an English man,
Kissed her on the neck
A
And then I took her by the hand,
E
Said, “Baby, I just wanna dance.”
D A
My pretty little Galway Girl,
E F#m
My, my, my, my,
D A
My, my, my Galway Girl,
E F#m
My, my, my, my,
D A
My, my, my Galway Girl,
E F#m
My, my, my, my,
D A E F#m
My, my, my Galway Girl.
