Song: Galway Shawl
(Intro)
G
[Verse 1]
G
In Oranmore in the county Galway
Em7 Cadd9 D
One pleasant evening in the month of May
G
I spied a damsel, she was young and handsome
Em7 D G
Her beauty fairly took my breath away
[Chorus]
G
She worn no jewels, nor costly diamonds
Em C D
No paint nor powder, no none at all
G
She worn a bonnet with a ribbon on it
Em D G
And 'round her shoulders was the Galway shawl
[Verse 2]
G
We kept on walking, and she kept on talking
Em C D
Till her fathers cottage came in to view
G
Said she, 'come in sir', and meet my father
Em D G
And for to please him, play 'The Foggy Dew'
[Verse 3]
G
I played, 'The Black Bird' and 'The Stack of Barley'
Em C D
'Rodney's Glory' and 'The Foggy Dew'
G
She sang each note like an Irish linnet
Em D G
And her tears they flowed from her eyes of blue
[Chorus]
G
She worn no jewels, nor costly diamonds
Em C D
No paint nor powder, no none at all
G
She worn a bonnet with ribbons on it
Em D G
And 'round her shoulders was the Galway shawl
[Verse 4]
G
Was very early all in the morning
Em C D
When I hit the road for Donegal
G
She said, 'goodbye sir', as she cried
Em D G
But my heart remained with the Galway shawl
[Chorus]
G
She worn no jewels, nor costly diamonds
Em C D
No paint nor powder, no none at all
G
She worn a bonnet with a ribbon on it
Em D G
And 'round her shoulders was the Galway shawl
