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