Verse 1
Said her name was (D major)
Marie From the banks of the Lee
(G major) With the pret (B minor) tiest eyes
my own had ever (A major) seen
Her hair (D major) like ripples They danced
with (G major) the tide
As our hearts (D major) washed away (A major) to the sea (D major)
Was she sent down from
(G major) the heavens above
(D major) Her breath pure as whiskey
my heart (B minor) fell in love
Now (D major) the devil is courtin' a different (G major) tune
And (D major) I laugh as the (A major) tears was (D major) the rain
Tell (G major) me why no

your wing (B minor) s and my frown
