Christy Moore – Nancy Spain (Guitar)

G
Of all the stars that ever shone

C                      G                  D
Not one does twinkle like your pale blue eyes

C                     D                 G
Like golden corn at harvest time your hair

G
Sailing in my boat the wind

C        G                 D
Gently blows and fills my sail

C                   D            G
Your sweet-scented breath is everywhere

G
Daylight peeping through the curtains

C                G                  D
Of the passing night time is your smile

C                   D                 G
And the sun in the sky is like your laugh

G
Come back to me my Nancy

C           G              D
Linger for just a little while

C                                  D                 G
Since you left these shores I've known no peace nor joy

G                                    C              D
No matter where I wander I'm still haunted by your name

      C                D               G
The portrait of your beauty stays the same

G                                C
Standing by the ocean wondering where you've

           G             D
gone, if you'll return again

C                    D               G
Where is the ring I gave to Nancy Spain

G                          C              G
On the day in spring when snow starts to melt

                 D
And streams to flow

C          D                G
With the birds I'll sing a song

G
In a while I'll wander

C                  G                       D
Down by bluebell grove where wild flowers grow

C                           D           G
And I'll hope that lovely Nancy will return

G                                    C              D
No matter where I wander I'm still haunted by your name

      C                D               G
The portrait of your beauty stays the same

G                                C
Standing by the ocean wondering where you've

           G             D
gone, if you'll return again

C                    D               G
Where is the ring I gave to Nancy Spain
