CHORUS: Em G She played the fiddle in an Irish band D C But she fell in love with an English man C G Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand D Said baby I just want to dance VERSE: Em G I met her on Grafton street right outside of the bar D C She shared a cigarette with me while her brother played the guitar Em G She asked me what does it mean the Gaelic ink on your arm? D N.C. Said it was one of my friend’s songs do you want to drink on? Em G She took Jamie as a chaser, Jack for the fun D C She got Arthur on the table, with Johnny riding as a shotgun Em G Chatted some more, one more drink at the bar D
