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 sails,
C D G
your sweet scented breath is everywhere.
G
Daylight peeping through the curtains
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 know no peace nor joy.
G C D
No matter where I wander, I’m still haunted by your name,
C D G
the portrait of your beauty stays the same.
G C
Standing by the ocean, wondering where you’ve gone,
G D
if you’ll return again.
C D G
Where is the ring I gave to Nancy Spain?
G
On the day in spring
C G D
when snow starts to melt, streams to flow,
C D G
with the birds I’ll sing a song.
G
In the while I’ll wander
C G D
down by bluebell grove, where wild flowers grow,
C D G
and I’ll hope that lovely Nancy will return.
G C D
No matter where I wander, I’m still haunted by your name,
C D G
the portrait of your beauty stays the same.
G C
Standing by the ocean, wondering where you’ve gone,
G D
if you’ll return again.
C D G
Where is the ring that I gave to Nancy Spain?
