Galway Girl

Galway Girl: Chords

    FA#m              LA
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
        MI           REadd9
But she fell in love with an English man
                
Kissed her on the neck 
LA       
and then I took her by the hand
       MI
Said, "Baby, I just want to dance"

             FA#m           LA
I met her on Grafton street right 

outside of the bar
             MI
She shared a cigarette 
                RE
with me while her brother played the guitar
             FA#m
She asked me what does it mean, 
    LA
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
She got Arthur on the table 
RE                           SIm7
with Johnny riding a shotgun
                 LA
Chatted some more, one more drink at the bar
         MI
Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance

              RE                   LA
You know, she played the fiddle in an Irish band
        MI           RE
But she fell in love with an English man
                  
Kissed her on the neck 
LA
and then I took her by the hand
       MI
Said, "Baby, I just want to dance"
                      RE   LA     MI  FA#m
With my pretty little Galway Girl
                        RE   LA     MI  FA#m
You're my pretty little Galway Girl

             FA#m
You know she beat me at darts 
    LA
and then she beat me at pool
             MI
And then she kissed me like there 
        RE
was nobody else in the room
        FA#m
As last orders were called was 
     LA
when she stood on the stool
      MI
After dancing to Cèilidh singing to trad tunes
        FA#m             LA
I never heard Carrickfergus ever sang so sweet
    MI               RE
A capella in the bar using her feet for a beat
            SIm7
Oh, I could have that voice playing 
LA
on repeat for a week
            MI
And in this packed out room swear 

she was singing to me
 
              RE                   LA
You know, she played the fiddle in an Irish band
        MI           RE
But she fell in love with an English man
                  
Kissed her on the neck 
LA
and then I took her by the hand
       MI
Said, "Baby, I just want to dance"
                      RE   LA     MI 
With my pretty little Galway Girl
             FA#m          RE   LA     MI 
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
             FA#m          RE   LA     MI 
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
             FA#m          RE   LA     MI  FA#m 
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl

              FA#m
And now we've outstayed our welcome 

and it's closing time

I was holding her hand, 

her hand was holding mine
    
Our coats both smell of smoke, 

whisky and wine

As we fill up our lungs 

with the cold air of the night
 FA#m
I walked her home then she took me inside
     MI
To finish some Doritos and another bottle of wine
  FA#m
I swear I'm gonna put you in a song that I write
        MI
About a Galway Girl and a perfect night

              FA#m7                   LA
You know, she played the fiddle in an Irish band
        MI                   REadd9
But she fell in love with an English man
                  
Kissed her on the neck 
LA
and then I took her by the hand
       MI
Said, "Baby, I just want to dance"
                      RE   LA     MI 
With my pretty little Galway Girl
             FA#m          RE   LA     MI 
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
             FA#m          RE   LA     MI 
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
             FA#m          RE   LA     MI  FA#m 
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
