C          F          C           F
In Oranmore in the County Galway,
           Am               C       F     G
One pleasant evening in the month of May,
C          F                   C           F
I spied a damsel, she was young and handsome
           Am       G             C   G
Her beauty fairly took my breath away


[Verse 2]
  C          F        C      F
We kept on walking, she kept on talking,
    Am               C             F     G
'Till her father's cottage came into view 
  C          F              C         F
Says she: 'Come in, sir, and meet my father,
        Am      G               C         G
And play to please him " The Foggy Dew "



[Chorus]
  C          F        C      F
She wore no jewels, nor costly diamonds,
      Am             C            F  G
No paint or powder, no, none at all 
     C          F             C       F
But she wore a bonnet with a ribbon on it
       Am               G              C  G
And round her shoulders was a Galway Shawl


[Verse 3]
          C          F                     C      F
I played "The Blackbird" and "The Stack of Barley",
      Am           C             F     G
" Rodney's Glory" and "The Foggy Dew",
       C          F        C      F
She sang each note like an Irish linnet 
           Am               G            C  G
While the tears flowed from her eyes so blue 


[Chorus]
  C          F        C      F
She wore no jewels, nor costly diamonds,
    Am               C              F  G
No paint or powder, no, none at all 
  C          F        C      F
But she wore a bonnet with a ribbon on it
       Am               G              C  G
And round her shoulders was a Galway Shawl


INSTUMENTAL VERSE

[Verse 4]
 C          F        C      F
'Twas early, early, all in the morning,
  Am           C             F     G
When I hit the road for old Donegal 
       C          F        C      F
She said 'Goodby, sir,'she cried and kissed me
         Am               C            F  G
And my heart remains with the Galway shawl


[Chorus]

  C          F        C      F
She wore no jewels, nor costly diamonds,
    Am               C              F  G
No paint or powder, no, none at all 
  C          F        C      F
But she wore a bonnet with a ribbon on it
       Am               C              F  G
And round her shoulders was a Galway Shawl


[Chorus]

  C          F        C      F
She wore no jewels, nor costly diamonds,
    Am               C              F  G
No paint or powder, no, none at all 
  C          F        C      F
But she wore a bonnet with a ribbon on it
       Am               G              C  G
And round her shoulders was a Galway Shawl


       Am               G             C   G
And round her shoulders was a Galway Shawl
