Verse 1
(A minor) Near Banbridge Town
in the county town
One morning (F major) last (A minor) July
Down a pouring green
came a sweet Colleen
And she smiled as she passed me by
She looked (C major) so (A minor) sweet
(C major) from (D minor) her two bare feet
To (A minor) the sheen of her nut brown hair (Esus4)
Such a (A minor) coaxing elf,
should I shift myself (D minor) to
(A minor) see I was really there
From Bantry (C major) Bay (A minor) up to (D minor) Derry Cane,
from (A minor) Galway to Dublin Town (E minor)
No maid (A minor) I've seen like the sweet Colleen
that I met in the county town (F major) (D minor) (F major)
(A minor) (C major) (A minor) (F major) (D minor) (A minor) (F major) (D minor)
(A minor) As she onwards sped,
sure I scratched my (D minor) head,
as I should (A minor) with a feeling rare
And I said, sirs, I, to a passer -by,
who's the maid with her nut -brown hair?
He smiled (C major) at me (D minor) and he said, sirs, he,
(A minor) that's the jam of all Ireland's (E minor) clouds
Young (A minor) Rosie McCann from
the banks (D minor) of the Van,
she's the star of the (A minor) County Down
From Ventry (C major) Bay up to (D minor) Derry Cane,
(A minor) from Galway to Dublin Town
(E minor) No maid (A minor) I've seen like
the sweet (D minor) Colleen
that I met (A minor) in the County Down (F major) (D minor) (A minor) (D minor) (A minor) (F major) (D minor)
(F major) (D minor) (A minor) (D minor) (A minor) (D minor) (A minor) (D minor) (A minor) (F major) (A minor)
(D minor) (A minor)
At the harvest fair, she'll be (D minor) surely there
So I'll dress in my Sunday clothes
With (A minor) my shoe shone bright
and my (D minor) hat cocked
Right for a smile for (A minor) my
night -brown rose
Not (C major) by bus, not by (D minor) horse,
I'll yoke to (A minor) my plows
And dusk the ground
And a -smiling bright by my (D minor) own fireside,
says the Star of the (A minor) County Down.
From (C major) Bantry Bay up to (D minor) Derry Cay,
and from (A minor) Galway to Dublin Town, (E minor)
(A minor) No maid I've seen like
the (D minor) sweet Colleen,
she's the Star of the (A minor) County Down.
