You know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at pool

And then she kissed me like there was nobody else in the room

As last orders were called was when she stood on the stool

After dancing to Ceili singing to trad tunes

I never heard Carrickfergus ever sung so sweet

Oh, I could have that voice playing on repeat for a week

And in this packed out room swear she was singing to me

Now we’ve outstayed our welcome and it’s closing time
E D
I was holding her hand, her hand was holding mine
Gbm A
Our coats both smell of smoke, whisky and wine
E
As we fill up our lungs with the cold air of the night
Gbm A

Finish some Doritos and another bottle of wine

I swear I’m going to put you in a song that I write

About a Galway Girl and a perfect night
