Nancy Spain Chords by Christy Moore

Here's a song for the _ daughter of the man from Scapa Flow. _ _ _ _ _ _
Of all the stars that ever shine, [C] not a one is twinkling [G] like your pale [D] blue eyes,
_ _ _ _ and like [C] golden [Bm] corn that [D] harvests tame [G] your hair. _
_ _ _ _ Sailing in my boat the wind [C] _ _ gently [G]
blows
and fills [D] my sail. _ _
_ Your [C] _ sweet scented breath is [G] everywhere. _ _ _ _
_ And like peeping through the [C] curtains _ of the passing [G] may time [D] is your smile. _ _ _ _ _
[C] And the sun _ in the [D] sky is like [G] your laugh. _ _ _ _ _
Come back to me my Nancy, _ _ [C]
linger _ [G] for just a [D] little while.
_ _ _ _ _ Since [C] you left these shores I've known no [G] peace nor joy.
_ _ _ _ _ No matter where I wander
I'm [C] still haunted by [D] your name. _ _ _
[C] The portrait _ [G] of your beauty _ stays the same. _ _ _ _ _ _
Standing by the ocean wondering [C] where you've gone, [G] if you'll return [D]
again.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C]
Where is the ring [D] I gave to [G] Nancy Spey? _ _ _ _ _ _
On a day in spring _ [C] when snow [G] starts to melt,
_ [A] streams to flow, _ _ _ _ _ [C]
with _ [D] the birds I'll [G] sing a song.
_ _ _ _ _ In a while I'll wander _ _ [C] down by [G] Bluebell Grove where wildflowers [A] grow,
[D] _ _ _ _ _ [C] and I'll hope that [D] lovely Nancy will [G] return.
_ _ _ No _ matter where I wander I'm still [C] haunted by your [D] name. _ _ _
The portrait [D] of your beauty [G] stays the same. _ _ _ _ _ _
Standing by the ocean _ [C] wondering where you've gone, [G] if you'll [D] return again.
_ _ _ _ Oh [C] where is the ring that [D] _ I gave [G] to Nancy Spey? _ _ _ _ _ _ _
