     'S é'n trua nach mise, nach mise
      A                   E    A
'S é'n trua nach mise bean Phái-dín
A
     'S é'n trua nach mise, nach mise
      D                     E     A
'S an bhean atá aige bheith caill-te
A
     Rachainn go Gallaí' go Gallaí'
   A                      D
Is rachainn go Gallaí' le Pháidín
A
     Rachainn go Gallaí' go Gallaí'
   D                     E    A
Is thiocfainn abhaile sa mbád leis
 
[Verse 1]
A
    Oh, I go to Galway, to Galway,
    A                   D
Oh, I go to Galway with Páidín
A
    Oh, we go to Galway together
    D                   E    A
And sail away home in a báid-ín

[Verse 2]

    I look through the window, the window
  A                           D
I look through the window for Páidín
A
    His wife is just sitting there, knitting
      D                        E    A
While I'm stuck outside in the gáir-dín

A
    I wish I was wedded, Was wed,
  A                    E    A
I wish I was wedded to Páid-ín
A
    He's chosen to marry another
    D                       E   A
And that is the cause of my rag-ing
 
[Verse 4]
A
    Rachainn go haonach an Chlocháin
   A                  D
Is siar go Béal Á' na Báighe
A
    Bhreathnóinn isteach tríd an bhfuinneog
   D                          E     A
A' súil is go bhfeicfinn bean Pháid-ín

A                   F#m
     I wish he were taken, were taken
    E                    D
The beautiful wife of my Páidín
C#m              F#m
     He'd not be forsaken, forsaken
    C#m           D              E    A
I'd still take my place there be-side him
 
[Verse 6]
C#m                 D
    Go mbristear do chosa, do chosa
   E                        F#m
Go mbristear do chosa 'bean Pháidín
E                   F#m
    Go mbristear do chosa, do chosa
   C#m          D           E    A
Go mbristear do chosa 's do chná-mha
