Galway Girl Chords & Lyrics - Ed Sheeran

Capo 2nd fret

[CHORUS 1]
She [Em]played the fiddle in[G] an Irish band
But she [D]fell in love with an[C] English man
[C]Kissed her on the neck and[G] then I took her by the hand
Said b[D]aby I just want to dance

[VERSE 1]
I met her on [Em]Grafton street [G]right outside of the bar
She shared a [D]cigarette with me while her [C]brother played the guitar
She asked me [Em]what does it mean the [G]Gaelic ink on your arm?
Said it was [D]one of my friend’s songs N.C.
do you want to drink on?
She took [Em]Jamie as a chaser,[G] Jack for the fun
She got [D]Arthur on the table, [C]with Johnny riding the shotgun
[Em]Chatted some more, [G]one more drink at the bar
Then put [D]Van on the jukebox, got up to dance, you know

[CHORUS 2]
She [C]played her fiddle in[G] an Irish band
But she [D]fell in love with an[C] English man
[C]Kissed her on the neck and[G] then I took her by the hand
Said b[D]aby I just want to dance
With my pretty little [C]Galway[G] Girl [D] [Em]
You’re my pretty little [C]Galway[G] Girl [D] [Em]

[VERSE 2]
You know she [Em]beat me at darts and [G]then she beat me at pool
And then she [D]kissed me like there was[C] nobody else in the room
As last o[Em]rders were called was w[G]hen she stood on the stool
After [D]dancing to Cèilidh singing to N.C.
trad tunes
I never [Em]heard Carrickfergus ev[G]er sing so sweet
A ca[D]pella in the bar u[C]sing her feet for a beat
Oh I could [Am]have that voice playing[G] on repeat for a week
And in this [D]packed out room swear she was singing to me

[CHORUS 3]
She [C]played her fiddle in[G] an Irish band
But she [D]fell in love with an[C] English man
[C]Kissed her on the neck and[G] then I took her by the hand
Said b[D]aby I just want to dance
With my pretty little [C]Galway[G] Girl
[D] My-my-my, [Em]my-my-my-my [C]Galway[G] Girl
[D] My-my-my, [Em]my-my-my-my [C]Galway[G] Girl
[D] My-my-my, [Em]my-my-my-my [C]Galway[G] Girl [D] [Em]

[VERSE 3]
Now we’ve [Em]outstayed our welcome [G]and it’s closing time
I was[D] holding her hand, her [C]hand was holding mine
Our [Em]coats both smell of [G]smoke, whisky and wine
As we [D]fill up our lungs with the cold air of the night
I [Em]walked her home [G]then she took me inside
Finished [D]some Doritos and a[C]nother bottle of wine
I [Em]swear I’m going to put you [G]in a song that I write
About a [D]Galway Girl and a perfect night

[CHORUS 4]
She [C]played her fiddle in[G] an Irish band
But she [D]fell in love with an[C] English man
[C]Kissed her on the neck and[G] then I took her by the hand
Said b[D]aby I just want to dance
My pretty little [C]Galway[G] Girl
[D] My-my-my, [Em]my-my-my-my [C]Galway[G] Girl
[D] My-my-my, [Em]my-my-my-my [C]Galway[G] Girl
[D] My-my-my, [Em]my-my-my-my [C]Galway[G] Girl, hey! [D] [Em]
