Nancy Spain - 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                           C      G                  D
Sailing in my boat the wind gently blows and fills my sail.
     C             D              G
Your sweet scented breath is everywhere


G
Daylight peeping through the curtains
C              G                  D
of the passing night time is your smile
    C          D                G
The sun in the sky is like your laugh.
     G                        C          G             D
Come back to me my Nancy, and linger for just a little while
          C                      D                  G
Since you left these shores I've known no peace nor joy



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


G       
On the day in spring
         C              G                   D
When the snow starts to melt and streams to flow
C        D                 G
With the birds I'll sing a song.
G                        C                G                        D
In the while I'll wander down by bluebell grove Where wild flowers grow
         C                D            G
And I'll hope that lovely Nancy will return
