[Dm]
Near Batbridge Town in the County Down One morning last July
Down a boring green came a [C] sweet Colleen And she smiled as she [Dm] passed me by
[F] She looked so sweet [C] in her two bare feet And [Am] the fringe of her nut brown hair
[Dm] Young Rosie McCann from the banks [C] of the Van She's the star of the [Dm] County Down
[F] From Bantry Bay up [C] to Derry Quay From [C] Galway to [Am] Dublin's town
No maid I've seen like the [C] fair Colleen That I met [Dm] in the County Down
As she onwards sped she scratched me head And I looked with a [Am] feeling rare
[Dm] And I says as I [C] to her passers-by [Dm] There's the [C] maid with the [Dm] nut brown hair
And he smiled at [C] me and he says, says, [Dm] see That's the gem of all [Am] Ireland's crown
It's Rosie McCann from the [C] banks of the Van [Dm] She's the star [C] of the County Down
[F] From Bantry [C] Bay up to Derry Quay [Dm] From Galway [Am] to Dublin's town
[Dm] No maid I've seen like the fair [C] Colleen That I met in the [Dm] County Down
[F] [Am]
[Dm] [C]
[Dm] At the Harvest Fair she'll be [Am] surely there And I'll dress in my Sunday clothes
[Dm] For my shoes shone [F] bright and my hat [C] cocked right [Dm] For a [C] smile from the nut brown rose
[F] No pipe I'll smoke, no horse [Dm] oil yolk Till my pal was a [Am] rust-coloured brown
[Dm] Till a smiling bride [C] by my own fire side [Dm] Is the [C] star of the [Dm] County Down
From Bantry [C] Bay up to Derry [Dm] Quay From [Am] Galway to Dublin's town
No maid I've seen like the [C] fair [Dm] Colleen That I met in the County Down
[F] From Bantry [C] Bay up to Derry Quay [Dm] From Galway [Am] to Dublin's town
[Dm] No maid I've seen like the fair [C] Colleen That I met in the [Dm] County Down
