Biografia:
A popular and long-running Canadian-Irish folk group that saw their beginning in the 1960s, The Irish Rovers are particularly well-known for their hit recording of Shel Silverstein's "The Unicorn," although a great many more of their characteristically happy and oft-comical songs remain well-known to this day. In 2010, the band celebrated 45 years as recording artists, with their latest CD, "Gracehill Fair" and filming the DVD/television special "Home in Ireland", shot entirely on-location, throughout the northwest coast of Ireland.

Black Velvet Band:The Irish Rovers.
Album - The Irish Rovers In Australia - 1976.
[Chorus]
A
Her eyes they shone like the diamonds.
E
You'd think she was Queen of the Land.
A F#m
And her hair hung over her shoulder,
D E A
tied up with a Black Velvet Band.
#1.
A
In a neat little town they call Belfast,
E
apprenticed to trade I was bound.
A F#m
And many an hour of sweet happiness,
D E A
I spent in that neat little town..
A
Till bad misfortune came over me and caused me
E
to stray from the land.
A F#m
Far away from me friends and rela..ions I
D E A
followed the Black Velvet Band.
[Chorus]
A
Her eyes they shone like the diamonds.
E
You'd think she was Queen of the Land.
A F#m
And her hair hung over her shoulder,
D E A
tied up with a Black Velvet Band.
#2.
A
Well, I went out strolling one evening, not
E
meaning to go very far..
A F#m
When I met with a ficklesome dam..sel, she was
D E A
plying her trade in the bar.
A
When a watch she took from a customer, and
E
slipped it right into me hand..
A F#m
And the law came and put me in pris..on, bad
D E A
luck to her Black Velvet Band.
[Chorus]
A
Her eyes they shone like the diamonds.
E
You'd think she was Queen of the Land.
A F#m
And her hair hung over her shoulder,
D E A
tied up with a Black Velvet Band.
#3.
A
This mornin' before judge and jury, for a trial,
E
I had to ap..pear.
A F#m
And the judge he says, 'Me young fellow, the
D E A
case against you is quite clear.
A
And seven long years is your sentence, you're
E
going to Van Daemons Land.
A F#m
Far away from your friends and relat..ions and
D E A
follow the Black Velvet Band.'
[Chorus]
A
Her eyes they shone like the diamonds.
E
You'd think she was Queen of the Land.
A F#m
And her hair hung over her shoulder,
D E A
tied up with a Black Velvet Band.
#4.
A
So, come all ye jolly young fellows, I'll have you
E
take warnin' from me.
A F#m
When..ever you're into the liquor, me lads,
D E A
beware of the pretty Colleen.
A
For they'll fill you with whiskey and porter, till you
E
are not able to stand.
A F#m
And the very next thing that you know, me lads, you've
D E A
landed in Van Daemon's Land.
[Chorus]
A
Her eyes they shone like the diamonds.
E
You'd think she was Queen of the Land.
A F#m
And her hair hung over her shoulder,
D E A
tied up with a Black Velvet Band.
