Star of the County Down
Em G D Em D
Near Bainbridge town in the county down one morning last July
Em G D Em C Em
Down the wild boreen came a sweet Colleen and she smiled as she passed me by.
G Am G Em D
She looked so sweet from her two bare-feet to the sheen of her nut brown hair.
Em G D Em C Em
Sure a coaxing elf I'd to shake me-self to make sure I was standing there.

Chorus:
G Am G Em D
From Bantry Bay down to Derry Quay from Galway to Dublin Town.
Em G D Em C Em
No Maid I've seen like the sweet Colleen that I met in the county down.
Em G D Em D
As she onward sped sure I shook my head and I gazed with a feeling quare
Em G D Em C Em
And I said, says I, to a passer-by: whose the maid with the nut brown hair?
G Am G Em D
Oh he smiled at me and with pride says he; that's the gem of Ireland's crown.
Em G D Em C
She's young Rosie McGann from the banks of the Bann she's the star of the county
Em
Down.

Chorus:
Em G D Em D
She'd a soft brown eye and a look so sly and a smile like a rose in June
Em G D Em C Em
And you craved each note from her lily-white throat as she lifted an Irish tune
G Am G Em D
At the pattern dance you'd be held in trance as she tripped through a jig or a reel
Em G D Em C Em
When her eyes she'd roll she would lift your soul and your heart she would quickly steal

Chorus:
Em G D Em D
Now I've roamed a bit was never hit since my traveling days began
Em G D Em C Em
But fair and square I surrendered there to the charms of young Rosie McCann
G Am G Em D
With my heart to let sure no tenant yet did I meet with a shawl or a gown
Em G D Em C Em
But in she went and I asked no rent from the star of the County Down.
Chorus:
