[Verse 1]
     Em              
Near Banbridge town, 
       G      D
in the County Down
    Em           D
One morning in July
      Em             
Down a bóithrín green
	    G        D
 came a sweet Cailín
        Em        
And she smiled as 
   D         Em
she passed me by.
    G               
She looked so sweet 
       D
in her two bare feet
      Em                    D
To the sheen of her nut-brown hair.
      Em
Such a coaxing elf
        G      D
I'd to shake myself
        Em         D        Em
To make sure I was standing there.

[Chorus]
     G                D
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
         Em               D
And from Galway to Dublin town.
   Em             
No maid I’ve seen 
         C         D
like the sweet Cailín
       Em         D      Em
That I met in the County Down.
      G                D
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
         Em               D
And from Galway to Dublin town.
   Em             
No maid I’ve seen 
         C         D
like the sweet Cailín
       Em         D      Em
That I met in the County Down.

[Verse 2]
       Em           
At the harvest fair 
        G      D
I'll be surely there
         Em              D
And I’ll dress my Sunday clothes
         Em               
And I'll try sheep's eyes 
         G      D
and deludhering lies
       Em       
On the heart of 
    D         Em
the nut-brown Rose.
   G                
No pipe I'll smoke, 
   D
no horse I'll yoke
           Em             
Though the plough with the
                   D
 rust in my turns brown
       Em               
Till a smiling bride by 
   G       D
my own fireside
         Em          D      Em
Sits the star of the County Down

[Chorus]
     G                D
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
         Em               D
And from Galway to Dublin town.
   Em                  
No maid I’ve seen like 
    C         D
the sweet Cailín
       Em         D      Em
That I met in the County Down.
      G                D
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
