Star Of The County Down
Em G D G Em D
Near to Banbridge town, in the County Down, one morning in July
Em G D G C D Em
Down a boreen green came a sweet colleen and she smiled as she passed me by
G Am G Em D
She looked so neat from her two white feet to the sheen of her nut-brown hair
Em G D Em C D Em
Sure the coaxing elf, I'd to shake myself, to make sure I was standing there
CHORUS:
G Am G Em D
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and from Galway to Dublin town
Em G D Em C D Em
No maid I've seen like the sweet colleen that I met in County Down
Em G D G Em D
As she onward sped, sure I scratched my head, And I looked with a feelin' are,
Em G D G C D Em
And I say's, say's I, to a passer by, "Who's the maid with the nut brown hair?"
G Am G Em D
He smyiled at me and he say's, say's he, "That's the gem of the Ireland's crown,
Em G D Em C D Em
Young Rosie McCann from the banks of the Bann, She's the star of the County Down".
CHORUS:
G Am G Em D
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and from Galway to Dublin town
Em G D Em C D Em
No maid I've seen like the sweet colleen that I met in County Down
Em G D G Em D
At the harvest fair she'll be surely there So I'll dress in my Sunday clothes,
Em G D G C D Em
With my shoes shine bright, and my hat cocked right, For the smile of a nut brown rose.
G Am G Em D
No pipe I'll smoke, no horse I'll yoke, Till my plough turns rust coloured brown.
Em G D Em C D Em
Till a smyling bride, by my own fireside Sits the star of the County Down.
CHORUS 3x:
G Am G Em D
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and from Galway to Dublin town
Em G D Em C D Em
No maid I've seen like the sweet colleen that I met in County Down
