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