Nancy Spain chords by Christy Moore

G
Of all the stars that ever shone
C           G         D
Not one does twinkle like your pale blue eyes
C           D         G
Like golden corn at harvest time your hair
G
Sailing in my boat the wind
C    G         D
Gently blows and fills my sail
C          D      G
Your sweet-scented breath is everywhere

G
Daylight peeping through the curtain
C        G         D
Of the passing night time is your smile
C          D         G
And the sun in the sky is like your laugh
G

Come back to me my Nancy
C      G       D
Linger for just a little while
C                 D         G
Since you left these shores I've known no peace Nor joy


Chorus:
G                  C
No matter where I wander I'm still haunted
     D
by your name
   C        D        G
The portrait of your beauty stays the same
G                C
Standing by the ocean wondering where you've
      G       D
gone, if you'll return again
C          D        G
Where is the ring I gave to Nancy Spain

G             C       G
On the day in Spring when snow starts to melt
         D
And streams to flow
C     D          G
With the birds I'll sing this song
G
Then in the while I'll wander
C         G            D
Down by bluebell stream where wild flowers grow
C              D      G
And I'll hope that lovely Nancy will return


Chorus:
G                  C
No matter where I wander I'm still haunted
     D
by your name
   C        D        G
The portrait of your beauty stays the same
G                C
Standing by the ocean wondering where you've
      G       D
gone, if you'll return again
C          D        G
