Ed Sheeran - Galway Girl Chords

Capo on fret 2

     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                  C

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                     C

She got Arthur on the table, with Johnny riding as shotgun

  Em               G

Chatted some more, one more drink at the bar

      D

Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance, you know

      C             G

She played the fiddle in an Irish band

         D            Em

But she fell in love with an English man

 C                      G

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

      D

Said baby I just want to dance

                       C     G     D    Em

With my pretty little Galway Girl

                         C    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                    C

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 the Cèilidh, singing to trad tunes

         Em                   G

I never heard Carrickfergus ever sung so sweet

     D                      C

Acapella 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

      C            G

She played the fiddle in an Irish band

         D            Em

But she fell in love with an English man

 C                       G

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

      D

Said baby I just want to dance

                       C      G

With my pretty little Galway Girl

 D               Em         C     G

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

 D               Em         C     G

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

 D               Em         C     G     D   Em

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

          Em                    G

Now we've outstayed our welcome and it's closing time

       D                     C

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                 C

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

      C            G

She played the fiddle in an Irish band

         D            Em

But she fell in love with an English man

 C                      G

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

      D

Said baby I just want to dance

                       C     G

D               Em         C     G

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

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

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