Strumming
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Chorus]
DShe played the Afiddle in an Irish band
EBut she fell in love with an F#mEnglish man
DKissed her on the neck and then AI took her by the hand
ESaid, "Baby, I just F#mwant to dance"
[Verse 1]
DI met her on AGrafton street right outside of the bar
EShe shared a cigarette with me while F#mher brother played the guitar
DShe asked me what does it mean, Athe Gaelic ink on your arm?
ESaid it was one of my friend's songs, F#mdo you want to drink on?
DShe took Jamie as a Achaser, Jack for the fun
EShe got Arthur on the table with F#mJohnny riding a shotgun
DChatted some more, Aone more drink at the bar
EThen put Van on the F#mjukebox, got up to dance
[Chorus]
DYou know, she played the Afiddle in an Irish band
EBut she fell in love with an F#mEnglish man
DKissed her on the neck and then AI took her by the hand
ESaid, "Baby, I just F#mwant to dance"
DWith my pretty little AGalway Girl
EYou're my pretty little F#mGalway Girl
[Verse 2]
DYou know she beat me at darts and then she Abeat me at pool
EAnd then she kissed me like there was F#mnobody else in the room
DAs last orders were called was Awhen she stood on the stool
EAfter dancing the céili singing to F#mtrad tunes
DI never heard Carrickfergus ever Asung so sweet
EA cappella in the bar using her F#mfeet for a beat
DOh, I could have that voice playing on Arepeat for a week
EAnd in this packed out room swear she was F#msinging to me
[Chorus]
DYou know, she played the Afiddle in an Irish band
EBut she fell in love with an F#mEnglish man
DKissed her on the neck and then AI took her by the hand
ESaid, "Baby, I just F#mwant to dance"
DWith my pretty little AGalway Girl
EMy, my, my, my, my, my, my F#mGalway Girl
EMy, my, my, my, my, my, my F#mGalway Girl
EMy, my, my, my, my, my, my F#mGalway Girl
[Verse 3]
DAnd now we've outstayed our welcome and it's Aclosing time
EI was holding her hand, F#mher hand was holding mine
DOur coats both smell of smoke, Awhisky and wine
EAs we fill up our lungs with the F#mcold air of the night
DI walked her home then she Atook me inside
ETo finish some Doritos and a F#mbottle of wine
DI swear I'm gonna put you in a Asong that I write
EAbout a Galway Girl and a F#mperfect night
[Chorus]
DYou know, she played the Afiddle in an Irish band
EBut she fell in love with an F#mEnglish man
DKissed her on the neck and then AI took her by the hand
ESaid, "Baby, I just F#mwant to dance"
DWith my pretty little AGalway Girl
EMy, my, my, my, my, my, my F#mGalway Girl
EMy, my, my, my, my, my, my F#mGalway Girl
EMy, my, my, my, my, my, my F#mGalway Girl
