I will live my life as a lobsterman's wife on an island in the blue bay.

Nelly and Faye.

There's a boy next to me and he never will be anything but a boy at the bar.

When he walks right past me then I finally see on this bar stool I can't stay.
    A augmentedA     E MajorE     A7A7     D MajorD
So I'm taking my frown to a far distant town

On an island  the blue bay.
