Galway Girl by Ed Sheeran

She played the fiddle in an Irish band
But she fell in love with an English man
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
Said, "baby, I just want to dance"
I meet her on Grafton street right outside of the bar
She shared a cigarette with me while her brother played the guitar
She asked me what does it mean, the (1)____________ ink on your arm?
Said it was one of my friend's songs, do you want to drink on?
She took Jamie as a chaser, (2)________ for the fun
She got Arthur on the table with Johnny riding as a shotgun
Chatted some more, one (3)________ drink at the bar
Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance
You know, she played the (4)____________ in an Irish band
But she fell in love (5)________ an English man
Kissed her on the (6)________ and then I took her by the hand
Said, "baby, I just want to dance"
With my (7)____________ little Galway girl

After dancing to Kaleigh, singing to (12)________ tunes
I (13)__________ (14)__________ Carrickfergus ever sang so sweet
A capella in the bar using her feet for a beat
Oh, I could have that voice playing on repeat for a week
And in this packed out room swear she was singing to me
You know, she played the (15)____________ in an Irish band
But she fell in love with an (16)______________ man
Kissed her on the (17)________ and (18)________ I took her by the hand

My, my, my, my, my, my, my (19)____________ girl
My, my, my, my, my, my, my (20)____________ girl
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girl
And now we've outstayed our welcome and it's closing time

Our coats both smell of smoke, whisky and wine
As we (22)________ up our lungs with the cold air of the night
I walked her (23)________ then she took me inside
To finish some Doritos and (24)______________ bottle of wine
I swear I'm gonna put you in a song that I write
