 The star of the county down

  Irish trad.

  

  

  Em                   G              D

  Near Banbridge town, in the county down

           G   Em    G

  One morning last July

          Em                   G      D

  Down a boreen green came a sweet coleen

            G            C       D  Em

  And she smiled and she passed me by.

  

  She looked so sweet from her two bare feet

  To the sheen of her nut brown hair.

  Such a coaxing elf, sure I shook myself

  For to see I was really there.

  

  Chorus :                      G                Am

  			From Bantry bay up to Derry quay

  			          G         Em     G

  			And from Galway to Dublin town

  			    Em                       G       D

  			No maid I've seen, like the Brown Coleen

  			       Em          C  D   Em

  			That I met in the county down.

  

  

  As she onward sped, sure I scratched my head

  And I looked with e feeling rare

  And I says, says I, to a passer by,

  “Who's the maid with the nut-brown air ? “

  He smiled at me and he says, says he

  “That's the gem of Ireland's crown

  Young Rosie Mc Cann from the Banks of the Bann

  She's the star of the county down”.

  

  		Chorus :

  

  At the harvest fair she'll be surely there

  So I'll dress with my Sunday clothes

  With my shoes shone bright and my hat cocked right

  For a smile from my nut-brown rose

  No pipe I'll smoke, no horse I'll yoke

  'till my plough is a rust-coloured brown

  'till a smiling bride by my own fireside

  Sits the star of the county down.

  

  		Chorus ...
