D D 
 
G G 
 
Dear Oramore,
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
in the county Galway
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
One pleasant evening in the month of May
A A 
 
I spied her coming,
D D 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
she was fair and winsome,
G G 
 
D D 
 
And she nearly stole my
Bm Bm 
 
Em Em 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
breath away.
G G 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
She wore no jewels,
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
no costly diamonds,
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
No painter powder, and none at all.
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
She wore a  bonnet with a  on it
G G 
 
D D 
 
And around her shoulder

Em Em 
 
s   was her
A A 
 
D D 
 
Galway shawl
G G 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
A A 
 
As we kept on walking,
D D 
 
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
we kept on talking
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
Till her father's cottage came into view
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
She said, come in, and meet my father,
G G 
 
D D 
 
Bm Bm 
 
And play to please him,
Em Em 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
the foggy dew.
G G 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
I  played the blackbird
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
and the stag of Barney,
A A 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
Rodney's glory, and the foggy dew.
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
She sang each note like an Irish lyre,
G G 
 
D D 
 
Bm Bm 
 
Till the tears fell down my cheeks
Em Em 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
like the morning dew.
D D 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
Bm Bm 
 
Em Em 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
She sat me down
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
beside the fire
A A 
 
G G 
 
Beside her father,
D D 
 
G G 
 
he being six feet tall
A A 
 
D D 
 
And soon her mother had
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
the kettle boilin'
G G 
 
D D 
 
Bm Bm 
 
But all I could think of
Em Em 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
was the Galway Shoal
G G 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
I  started off early next  morning
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
To take the road for old Donny Goll
A A 
 
D D 
 
She sighed an d kissed me,
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
and then she left me
G G 
 
D D 
 
With my heart wrapped tightly
Bm Bm 
 
Em Em 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
in  her Galway shawl
G G 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
A A

She wore no jewels,

G G 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
No painter -powder, a ton of talc
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
She wore a  bonnet with a  on it
G G 
 
D D 
 
Bm Bm 
 
Em Em 
 
And around her shoulder was her
A A 
 
D D 
 
Galway shawl

An d around her shoulder
