Chorus:
         Gm                Bb
     She played the fiddle in an Irish band
             F            D#add9          D#
     But she fell in love with an English man,
     D#add9
     Kissed her on the neck
         Bb
     And then I took her by the hand,
            F
     Said, “Baby, I just wanna dance.”

             Gm
I met her on Grafton Street
Bb
Right outside of the bar,
             F
She shared a cigarette with me
      D#
While her brother played the guitar.
             Gm
She asked me what does it mean,
    Bb
The Gaelic ink on your arm?
            F
Said it was one of my friend’s songs,
                     Bbadd9
Do you want to drink on?

         Gm            Bb
She took Jamie as a chaser,
Jack for the fun,
        F
She got Arthur on the table
D#                              Cm7
With Johnny riding as shot gun,
Chatted some more,
Bb
One more drink at the bar,
         F
Then put Van on the jukebox,
Got up to dance, you know.

Chorus:
         D#                Bb
     She played the fiddle in an Irish band
             F            D#
     But she fell in love with an English man,
     Kissed her on the neck
         Bb
     And then I took her by the hand,
            F
     Said, “Baby, I just wanna dance
                           D#   Bb      F Gm
     With my pretty little Galway Girl.”
                             D#   Bb     F Gm
     You’re my pretty little Galway Girl.

              Gm
You know, she beat me at darts
    Bb
And then she beat me at pool,
             F
And then she kissed me
                 D#
Like there was nobody else in the room.
        Gm
As last orders were called,
    Bb
Was when she stood on the stool
      F
After dancing to céilí,
                    Bbadd9
Singing to trad tunes.

        Gm
I never heard Carrickfergus
Bb
Ever sung so sweet,
     F
A cappella in the bar
D#
Using her feet for a beat,
            Cm7
Oh, I could have that voice
        Bb
Playing on repeat for a week,
            F
And in this packed out room swear
She was singing to me, you know.

Chorus:
         D#                Bb
     She played the fiddle in an Irish band
             F            D#
     But she fell in love with an English man,
     Kissed her on the neck
         Bb
     And then I took her by the hand,
            F
     Said, “Baby, I just wanna dance.”
                      D#   Bb
     My pretty little Galway Girl,
   F             Gm
     My, my, my, my,
                D#   Bb
     My, my, my Galway Girl,
   F             Gm
     My, my, my, my,
                D#   Bb
     My, my, my Galway Girl,
   F             Gm
     My, my, my, my,
                D#   Bb      F Gm
     My, my, my Galway Girl.

              Gm
And now we’ve outstayed our welcome
Bb
And it’s closing time,
     F
I was holding her hand,
    D#
Her hand was holding mine.
    Gm
Our coats both smell
   Bb
Of smoke, whisky and wine
      F
As we fill up our lungs
With the cold air of the night.

 Gm
I walked her home,
Bb
Then she took me inside,
       F
Finish some Doritos
     D#
And another bottle of wine.
  Cm7
I swear I’m going to put you
Bb
In a song that I write
        F
About a Galway Girl
And a perfect night.

Chorus:
         Gm                Bb
     She played the fiddle in an Irish band
             F            D#add9
     But she fell in love with an English man,
     Kissed her on the neck
         Bb
     And then I took her by the hand,
            F
     Said, “Baby, I just wanna dance.”
                      D#   Bb
     My pretty little Galway Girl,
   F             Gm
     My, my, my, my,
                D#   Bb
     My, my, my Galway Girl,
   F             Gm
     My, my, my, my,
                D#   Bb
     My, my, my Galway Girl,
   F             Gm
     My, my, my, my,
                D#   Bb      F Gm
     My, my, my Galway Girl.
