      Em              G
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
         D            Em
But she fell in love with an English man
 Cadd9                      G
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
      D
Said baby I just want to dance

               Em            G
I met her on Grafton street right outside of the bar
              D                  Cadd9
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
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                     Cadd9
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

      Cadd9             G
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
         D            Em
But she fell in love with an English man
 Cadd9                      G
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
      D
Said baby I just want to dance
                       Cadd9     G     D    Em
With my pretty little Galway Girl
                         Cadd9     G    D    Em
You're my pretty little Galway Girl

              Em                    G
You know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at pool
              D                    Cadd9
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
After dancing to Cèilidh singing to trad tunes
         Em                   G
I never heard Carrickfergus ever sing so sweet
     D                      Cadd9
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

      Cadd9             G
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
         D            Em
But she fell in love with an English man
 Cadd9                       G
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
      D
Said baby I just want to dance
                       Cadd9      G
With my pretty little Galway Girl
 D               Em         Cadd9     G

My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl

          Em                    G
Now we've outstayed our welcome and it's closing time
       D                     Cadd9
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                 Cadd9
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

      Cadd9             G
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
         D            Em
But she fell in love with an English man

      D
