F#m She played the
A fiddle in an Irish
E band, but she fell
D in love with an English man.
Kissed her
Am on the neck and then I took her by
E the hands, said baby I just wanna dance.
F#m I met her on Grafton Street by the side of the
E bar.
She shared a cigarette
D with me while her brother played the
F#m guitar.
She asked me what does it
A mean, the
E gaelic ink on your arm.
Said it
A was one of my friends' songs, do you wanna drink
F#m on.
She took Jamie
A as a chaser,
E Jack for the fun.
She
Bm got Arthur on the table with Johnny riding a shotgun.
Chatted
A some more while my drink at the
E bar.
Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance.
D She played
A the fiddle in an Irish band, but
E she fell
D in love with an English man.
Kissed her
A on the neck and then I took her by
E the hands, said baby I just wanna dance.
With
D my pretty little
A Galway girl.
E F#m You _ _
D _ _
A _ _ .
E _
F#m know _ she beat me at
A dancing,
E she beat me at pool.
And then she kissed me like
D there was nobody else in
F#m the room.
As last orders were
A called was when
E she stood on the stool.
After dancing to Kayleigh singing to trad
F#m tunes.
I never heard
A Carick Fergus ever sung so
E sweet.
Acapella in
D the bar using her feet for a
Bm beat.
Oh I could have that
A voice playing on repeat for
E a week.
And in this back town room is where she was singing to me.
You know
D she played the
A fiddle in an Irish
E band, but she fell in
D love with an English man.
Kissed her on
A the neck and then I took her by the hands, said
E baby I just wanna dance.
D With my pretty little
A Galway
E girl.

F#m _ And now with our state all welcome in this closing
G#m time.
I was holding
F#m her hand, her hand was holding mine.
A cold, smoke smell of smoke, whiskey
E and wine.
As we fill up her lungs with the cold air of the
F#m night.
I walked her home and she took me
E inside.
Finishing Doritos
D and another bottle of
F#m wine.
I swear I'm
A gonna put you in a song that
E I write.
About a Galway girl and a perfect night.
F#m She played
A the fiddle in an Irish band, but
