[Verse 1]
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

[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
