C
Of all the stars that ever shone
Fadd9 C G
Not one does twinkle like your pale blue eyes
Fadd9 G C
Like golden corn at harvest time your hair
C
Sailing in my boat the wind
Fadd9 C G
Gently blows and fills my sail
Fadd9 G C
Your sweet-scented breath is everywhere
Daylight peeping through the curtain
Of the passing night time is your smile
And the sun in the sky is like your laugh
Come back to me my Nancy
Linger for just a little while
Since you left these shores I've known no peace
Nor joy
Chorus:
C Fadd9
No matter where I wander I'm still haunted
G
by your name
Fadd9 G C
The portrait of your beauty stays the same
C Fadd9
Standing by the ocean wondering where you've
C G
gone, if you'll return again
Fadd9 G C Fadd9 C
Where is the ring I gave to Nancy Spain
On the day in Spring when snow starts to melt
And streams to flow
With the birds I'll sing this song
Then in the while I'll wander
