Galway Girl Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Pre-chorus 1]
She [Am]played the fiddle [C]in an Irish band
But she [G]fell in love [F]with an English man
Kissed her on the cheek
and then [C]I took her by the hand
Said, [G]"Baby, I just want to dance"

[Verse 1]
I met her on [Am]Grafton street
[C]right outside of the bar
She sang a [G]song with me
while [F]her brother played the guitar
She asked me [Am]what does it mean
[C]the Gaelic ink on your arm?
Said it was [G]one of my friend's songs
do you want to sing on?

[Verse 2]
She took [Am]me out for the pa[C]rty just for the fun
We were [G]singing at the table
[F]with our friends all singing along
[Dm]Chatted some more,
[C]one more song on guitar
Then put [G]Van on the jukebox,
got up to dance, you know

[Pre-chorus 2]
She [F]played the fiddle [C]in an Irish band
But she [G]fell in love [F]with an English man
Kissed her on the cheek
and then [C]I took her by the hand
Said, [G]"Baby, I just want to dance"

[Chorus 1]
With my pretty little [F]Galway [C]Gir[G]l[Am]
You're my pretty little [F]Galway [C]Gir[G]l[Am]

[Verse 3]
You know she [Am]beat me at darts
and [C]then she beat me at pool
And she [G]looked at me like there
was [F]nobody else in the room
As last [Am]orders were called,
was [C]when she stood on the stool
After [G]dancing the ceili,
singing to trad tunes

[Verse 4]
I never [Am]heard Carrickfergus [C]ever
sung so sweet
A ca[G]pella in the back u[F]sing her feet for a beat
Oh I could [Dm]have that voice playing
[C]on repeat for a week
And in this [G]packed out room,
swear she was singing to me, you know

[Pre-chorus 3]
She [F]played the fiddle [C]in an Irish band
But she [G]fell in love [F]with an English man
Kissed her on the cheek
and then [C]I took her by the hand
Said, [G]"Baby, I just want to dance"

[Chorus 2]
With my pretty little [F]Galway [C]Girl
[G]My my my my [Am]my my my Galwa[F]y Girl[C]
[G]My my my my [Am]my my my Galwa[F]y Girl[C]
[G]My my my my [Am]my my my
[F]Galway [C]Gir[G]l[Am]

[Pre-chorus 4]
You know, she [F]played the fiddle
in an [C]Irish band
But she [G]fell in love with an [F]English man
Kissed her on the cheek
and then I [C]took her by the hand
Said, [G]"Baby, I just want to dance"

[Outro 1]
With my pretty little [F]Galway [C]Girl
[G]My my my my [Am]my my my Galwa[F]y Girl[C]
[G]My my my my [Am]my my my Galwa[F]y Girl[C]
[G]My my my my [Am]my my my
[F]Galway [C]Gir[G]l[Am]
