   Em                    G      D
In Banbridge Town in the County Down
    Em           D
One morning last July,
       Em                  G     D
From a boreen green came a sweet colleen
        Em            D            Em
And she smiled as she passed me by.
    G                        D
She looked so sweet from her two bare feet
       Em                     D
To the sheen of her nut brown hair.
       Em                  G        D
Such a coaxing elf, sure I shook my self
       Em        D      Em
For to see I was really there.



CHORUS:
     G                D
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and
     Em               D
From Galway to Dublin Town,
   Em                      G     D
No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
       Em         D      Em
That I met in the County Down.
