[Verse 1]
         G                          F          G
I've the face of a stranger, with a smile of a rover
                                     Dm           G
I take a glass at down Kinvara and a jug at Oughterard
                                         F             G
Down the great donkey roads, through the hills of Connemara
                   C                  Am             G
To my dark Spanish handsome love, way down in Galway town


[Chorus]
      C                         G              C
Where Jimmy is me love, he's me pride, he's me darling
Dm7             C             Dm          G
Jimmy leaves me wander to the ends of the world
C                              G                Am
Jimmy brings me love, gives me hope and sets me dreaming
    F                   C               Am               G
And when the leaves are turning, in his arms I'll settle down
          C
In Galway town


[Verse 2]
         G                    F                    G
The spring brings the swallow, a fresh land of the rover
                                           Dm            G
Where the blushing summer roses shed their petals to the glen
                                           F             G
And the long breathless evenings where the loneliness is heaven
                           C           Am             G
Makes the dreaming come so easy on the road to Galway town


[Chorus]
      C                         G              C
Where Jimmy is me love, he's me pride, he's me darling
Dm7             C             Dm          G
Jimmy leaves me wander to the ends of the world
C                              G                Am
Jimmy brings me love, gives me hope and sets me dreaming
    F                   C               Am               G
And when the leaves are turning, in his arms I'll settle down
          C
In Galway town


[Verse 3]
G                     F           G
Curlew are calling, a shy fawn is prancing
                                     Dm              G
All the ferns on them bulbing by the thousand gentle eyes
                                        F                  G
And the creatures of Éireann sing their own sweet songs of pleasure
                    C                  Am             G
As the rover goes a-whistling down the road to Galway town


[Chorus]
      C                         G              C
Where Jimmy is me love, he's me pride, he's me darling
Dm7             C             Dm          G
Jimmy leaves me wander to the ends of the world
C                              G                Am
Jimmy brings me love, gives me hope and sets me dreaming
    F                   C               Am               G
And when the leaves are turning, in his arms I'll settle down
          C
In Galway town


[Chorus]
                            G              C
Where he's me love, he's me pride, he's me darling
Dm7             C             Dm          G
Jimmy leaves me wander to the ends of the world
C                              G                Am
Jimmy brings me love, gives me hope and sets me dreaming
    F                   C               Am               G
And when the leaves are turning, in his arms I'll settle down
          C
In Galway town
