_ Near Bunbridge town in the [F] county [G] down One morning [Dm] last July
[Gm] Down a boring [Bb] green come a [F] sweet [G] Colleen And she [Cm] smiled as she [Gm] passed me by
[Bb] She looked so [F] sweet from her two bare [Gm] feet To the sheen of her [Dm] nut brown hair
[Eb] Such a wince I'm [Gm] elf, I'm ashamed of meself For the [Cm] sea I was [Gm] staring there
From [Bb] Bunfrie [F] Bay up the Derry's [Gm] quay From [Cm] Galway to [F] Dublin town
[Gm] No maid I've seen like the [F] fair [G] Colleen Had I met in the county down
_ [Gm] As she onwards bent sure a [F] scratch me [Gm] head And I looked with a [Dm] feeling rare
[Gm] And I says says I to a [F] passerby [Gm] Who's a [Cm] maid with a nut [Gm] brown hair
[Bb] Well he looked at me [F] and he said to me [Gm] This a gem of [Dm] Ireland's crown
[Eb] Young Rosie [Gm] McCann from the banks of the bann She's the [Cm] star of the [Gm] county down
[Bb] From Bunfrie [F] Bay up the Derry's [Gm] quay From [C] Galway to [F] Dublin town
[Eb] No maid I've [Gm] seen like the [F] fair [G] Colleen Had I [C] met in the [Gm] county down
_ She'd soft brown eyes with a [F] look so [Gm] shy And a [Eb] smile like the [Dm] rose in June
[Gm] And she sang so sweet what a [F] lovely [Gm] treat As she [Cm] lilted an [Gm] Irish tune
[Bb] At the lambeth [F] dance I was in the [Gm] trance As she whirled with the [Dm] lads of the town
[Eb] And it broke me [Gm] heart just to [F] be apart [Gm] From the [Cm] star of the [Gm] county down
[Bb] From Bunfrie [F] Bay up the Derry's [Gm] quay From [C] Galway to [F] Dublin town
[Eb] No maid I've [Gm] seen like the [F] fair [G] Colleen Had I [Cm] met in the [Gm] county down _ _ _

_ _ _ _ At the harvest fair she'll be [F] surely [Gm] there So I'll dress in my [Dm] Sunday clothes
[Gm] With my shoes shunned bright and my [F] hat cock [Gm]-a-ranked For a [Cm] smile from the [Gm] nut brown rose
[Bb] No pipe I'll [F] smoke no horse I'll [Gm] yoke When my plough is [Dm] a rust-coloured brown
[Eb] And a smiling [Bb] bride by my [F] own [Gm] fireside Says the [Cm] star of the [Gm] county down
[Bb] From Bunfrie [F] Bay up the Derry's [G] quay From Galway to Dublin [Dm] town
[G] No maid I've seen like the fair Colleen Had I met in the county down
[Bb] From Bunfrie Bay up [F] the [Gm] Derry's quay From [C] Galway [F] to Dublin town
[Eb] No maid [Gm] I've seen like [F] the fair [G] Colleen Had [Cm] I met in the county [Gm] down
