[Intro 1]
[Am][C][G][Am][Em][Am][F][G][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Near
Bainbridge town in the [F]County [G]Down
One [Am]morning in Ju[Em]ly
Down a [Am]boreen green came
[F]a sweet [G]Colleen
And [Am]she smiled as she [G]passed me [Am]by
Oh, she [C]looks so sweet
from her [G]two white feet
To [Am]the sheen of her nut brown [Em]hair
Sure the [Am]coaxing elf, I had [F]to shake my[G]self
To make [Am]sure I was standing there

[Verse 2]
[Am](Come on, [G]Folks)

[Verse 3]
[C]From Bantry Bay up [G]to Derry Quay
And from [Am]Galway to Dublin [Em]Town
No [Am]maid I've seen like
[F]the sweet [G]Colleen
That I [Am]met in the [G]County D[Am]own
From [C]Bantry Bay up [G]to Derry Quay
And from [Am]Galway to Dublin [Em]Town
No [Am]maid I've seen like
[F]the sweet [G]colleen
That I [Am]met in the [G]County D[Am]own

[Verse 4]
At the [Am]harvest fair I'll [F]be surely [G]there
And I'll [Am]dress in my Sunday [Em]clothes
And [Am]I'll try sheep's eyes
an[F]d deludh[G]ering lies
On the [Am]heart of [G]the nut-brown [Am]rose
rose
No [C]pipe I'll smoke,
no [G]horse I'll yoke
'Cause my [Am]plow with rust turns [Em]brown
'Til [Am]a smiley bride at my [F]own fireside
[G]Sits the[Am] Star of the Cou[G]nty Dow[Am]n

[Verse 5]
From [C]Bantry Bay up [G]to Derry Quay
And from [Am]Galway to Dublin [Em]Town
No [Am]maid I've seen like
[F]the sweet [G]Colleen
That [Am]I met in the County Down
From [C]Bantry Bay up to [G]Derry Quay
And from [Am]Galway to Dublin [Em]Town
No [Am]maid I've seen like
[F]the sweet [G]colleen
That I [Am]met in the [G]County D[Am]own
