[E] Nearer and more in [B] the [E] county gallway, One pleasant evening in the month [A] of May,
I spied [E] a damsel, she [B] was young [E] and handsome, Her beauty fairly took [Gb] [B] my breath
[E] away.
She [B] wore [E] no jewel, no [B]
[E] costly diamond, No paint nor powder, no none [A] at all.
She wore a [E] bonnet with [B] a ribbon [E] on it, And round her shoulders
[Gb] was a gold [E] shawl.
We [B] kept [E] on walking, she [B] kept [E] on talking, Till her father's cottage it came [A] into view.
Said she, [E] Come and serve, [B] and meet [E] me, father, And for to please him, play the foggy Jew.
I [B] played [E] the blackbird and [B] the stack [E] of barley, Rodney's glory and the [A] foggy Jew.
She sang [E] each note [B] like an [E] Irish lyre, And the tears stood in her eyes of blue.
She [B] wore [E] no jewel, [B] no costly [E] diamond, No paint nor powder, no none [A] at all.
She wore [E] a bonnet with [B] a ribbon
[E] on it, And round her shoulders was a gold shawl.
[C]
[F] All [C] in [F] the morning I hit the road, For old [Bb] Dummy Gall said she [F] good-bye, sir.
She [C] smiled [F] and kissed me, But my heart remained [C] with the [F] gallowy shawl.
She [C] wore [F] no jewel, no [C] costly [F] diamond, No paint nor powder, no none [Bb] at all.
But she wore [F] a bonnet with [C] a ribbon [F] on it, And round her shoulders
[C] was a gold shawl.
