The Irish Rovers - Star of the county down

In ^DmBanbridge Town in the ^FCounty^C Down One ^Dmmorning last ^CJuly, Down a ^Dmboreen ^Bbgreen come a ^Fsweet col^Cleen And she ^Dmsmiled as she ^Dmpassed ^Cme ^Dmby. She ^Flooked so sweet from her ^Ctwo bare feet To the ^Dmsheen of her nut brown ^Chair. Such a ^Dmwinsome ^Bbelf, I'm a^Fshamed of my^Cself For to ^Dmsee I was ^Dmstar^Cing ^Dmthere.

From ^FBantry Bay up to ^CDerry Quay and From ^DmGalway to Dublin ^CTown, No ^Dmmaid I've ^Bbseen like the ^Ffair col^Cleen That I ^Dmmet in the ^DmCoun^Cty ^DmDown.

As she ^Dmonward sped, sure I ^Fscratched my ^Chead, And I ^Dmlooked with a feelin' ^Crare, And I ^Dmsays, says ^BbI, to a ^Fpasser-^Cby, "Who's the ^Dmmaid with the ^Dmnut ^Cbrown ^Dmhair?" He ^Fsmiled at me and he ^Csays, says he, "That's the ^Dmgem of Ireland's ^Ccrown. Young ^DmRosie Mc^BbCann from the ^Fbanks of the ^CBann, She's the ^Dmstar of the ^DmCoun^Cty ^DmDown."

From ^FBantry Bay up to ^CDerry Quay and From ^DmGalway to Dublin ^CTown, No ^Dmmaid I've ^Bbseen like the ^Ffair col^Cleen That I ^Dmmet in the ^DmCoun^Cty ^DmDown.

She'd ^Dmsoft brown eyes with a ^Flook so ^Cshy And a ^Dmsmile like the rose in ^CJune And she ^Dmsang so ^Bbsweet, what a ^Flovely ^Ctreat As she ^Dmlilted an ^DmIris^Ch ^Dmtune. At the ^FLambeth dance I was ^Cin a trance as she ^Dmwhirled with the lads of the ^Ctown, And it ^Dmbroke my ^Bbheart just to ^Fbe a^Cpart from the ^Dmstar of the ^DmCoun^Cty ^DmDown."

From ^FBantry Bay up to ^CDerry Quay and From ^DmGalway to Dublin ^CTown, No ^Dmmaid I've ^Bbseen like the ^Fsweet co^Clleen That I ^Dmmet in the ^DmCoun^Cty ^DmDown.

At the ^DmHarvest Fair she'll be ^Fsurely ^Cthere And I'll ^Dmdress in my Sunday ^Cclothes, With my ^Dmshoes shone ^Bbbright and my ^Fhat cocked ^Cright For a ^Dmsmile from my ^Dmnut ^Cbrown ^Dmrose. No ^Fpipe I'll smoke, no ^Chorse I'll yoke Till my ^Dmplough turns rust coloured ^Cbrown. And a ^Dmsmiling ^Bbbride by my ^Fown fire^Cside Sits the ^Dmstar of the ^DmCoun^Cty ^DmDown.
