[Verse 1]
     Em                     G      D
Near Banbridge town, in the County Down
    Em           D
One morning in July
      Em                   G        D
Down a bóithrín green came a sweet Cailín
        Em           D         Em
And she smiled as she passed me by.
    G                      D
She looked so sweet 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                      C         D
No maid I’ve seen 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                      C         D
No maid I’ve seen like the sweet Cailín
       Em         D      Em
That I met in the County Down.
 
 
[Verse 2]
       Em                   G      D
At the harvest fair I'll be surely there
         Em              D
And I’ll dress my Sunday clothes
         Em                        G      D
And I'll try sheep's eyes and deludhering lies
       Em           D         Em
On the heart of the nut-brown Rose.
   G                   D
No pipe I'll smoke, no horse I'll yoke
           En                               D
Though the plough with the rust in my turns brown
       Em                  G       D
Till a smiling bride by 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                      C         D
No maid I’ve seen like the sweet Cailín
       Em         D      Em
That I met in the County Down.

That I met in the County Down.
