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.

[Verse 1]
Em G D Em D
Near Banbridge Town in the County Down, One morning last July
Em G D Em D Em
From a bóithrín green came a sweet cailín, And she smiled as she passed me by
G D Em D
She looked so sweet from her two bare feet, To the sheen of her nut brown hair
Em G D Em D Em
Such a winsome elf, I’m ashamed of myself For to see I was staring there
[Chorus]
G D Em D
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and from Galway to Dublin Town
Em G D Em D Em
No maid I've seen like the fair cailín that I met in the County Down
[Verse 2]
Em G D Em D
As she onward sped, sure I scratched my head, And I looked with a feelin' rare
Em G D Em D Em
And I say's, say's I, to a passer-by "Whose the maid with the nut brown hair"?
G D Em D
Well, he looked at me, and he said to me, "That's the gem of Ireland's crown
Em G D Em D Em
Young Rosie McCann from the banks of the Bann she's the star of the County Down"
[Chorus]
G D Em D
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and from Galway to Dublin Town
Em G D Em D Em
No maid I've seen like the fair cailín that I met in the County Down
[Verse 3]
Em G D Em D
She'd soft brown eyes with a look so shy and a smile like a rose in June
Em G D Em D Em
And she sang so sweet what a lovely treat as she lilted an Irish tune
G D Em D
At the Lammas dance I was in a trance as she whirled with the lads of the town
Em G D Em D Em
And it broke my heart just to be apart from the star of the County Down
[Chorus]
G D Em D
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and from Galway to Dublin Town
Em G D Em D Em
No maid I've seen like the fair cailín that I met in the County Down
[Verse 4]
Em G D Em D
At the Harvest Fair she'll be surely there and I'll dress in my Sunday clothes
Em G D Em D Em
With my shoes shone bright and my hat cocked right for a smile from my nut brown rose
G D Em D
No pipe I'll smoke, no horse I'll yoke till my plough is a rust coloured brown
Em G D Em D Em
And a smiling bride, by my own fireside sits the star of the County Down
