Key:
Dm Bb C
Dm Eb C [Verse]
F C F Deep and dark are my true love's eyes
Bb C F Blacker still is the winter turning
Bb C F As the sadness of parting proves
Bb C F And brighter now is the lantern burning
Bb C F That lightens my path to her [Verse]
C F C F No fiddle tune will take the air
Bb C F But I'll see her swift feet a-dancing
Continues after the ad
Bb C F And the swirl of her long brown hair
Bb C F Her smiling face and her dark eyes glancing
Bb C Dm As we stepped up from Banbury Fair [Instrumental]
C Bb C Dm Eb C [Verse]
F C F If my waiting prove in vain
Bb C F Then I'll pack and track ever take me
Bb C F And the long road will ease my pain
Bb C F Bb F No jewelled mankind will ever make me
Bb C F Whisper love's words again [Verse]
C F C F For in drink I'll seek good company
Bb C F My ears will ring with the tavern's laughter
Bb C F And I'll hear not her last sweet sigh
Bb C F And who's to know in the morning after
Bb C F C F How I long for her dear dark eyes
Bb C F C F And I long for her dear dark eyes
Bb C F C How I long for her dear dark eyes
