Gracehill Fair

Am  Em  Am
Dm  Em  Am


[Verse 1]
        Am           Em           Am
Well I used to be a rover and I rambled all around
        Dm            Em             Am
And I never felt the urge to settle down
    Dm              G             C     Am
But in the county Antrim down Ballymena Way
      Dm           Em           Am
Sly cupid came a-calling me one day


[Refrain]
     Dm             G              C             Am
And from the very start sure she stole away me heart
 Dm                Em     Am
Since I saw her standing there
     Dm               G      C           Am
And with her I will stay un-til me dying day
      Dm                 Em     Am
And I met her at the Gracehill Fair


[Interlude]
Dm    G    C     Am
Dm    Em   Am


[Verse 2]
           Am          Em             Am
She was lovely as the roses and as graceful as a swan
          Dm                   Em         Am
And her lilting voice would brighten any dawn
   Dm              G             C              Am
I knew I'd be in heaven just to hold her in me arms
         Dm            Em             Am
I was smitten by her beauty and her charm


[Refrain]
     Dm             G              C             Am
And from the very start sure she stole away me heart
 Dm                Em     Am
Since I saw her standing there
     Dm               G      C           Am
And with her I will stay un-til me dying day
      Dm                 Em     Am
And I met her at the Gracehill Fair


[Interlude]
Dm    G    C     Am
Dm    Em   Am


[Verse 3]
          Am                 Em          Am
Well the fair it runs from April until Lammas Days are done
    Dm                Em          Am
And all are in good humour having fun
           Dm               G                   C            Am
There's fiddlers, there's pipers and there's dancers on the green
          Dm              Em             Am
And the finest wares that you have ever seen


[Refrain]
     Dm             G              C             Am
And from the very start sure she stole away me heart
 Dm                Em     Am
Since I saw her standing there
     Dm               G      C           Am
And with her I will stay un-til me dying day
      Dm                 Em     Am
And I met her at the Gracehill Fair

Dm   Em    Am

Dm   G     C    Am
Dm   Em    Am

Dm   Em    Am


[Verse 4]
         Am             Em           Am
Now me roving days are over and I'm happy for to bide
          Dm           Em            Am
For the lovely lass I met became me bride
     Dm                 G          C                Am
Each day I count me blessings for true love we do share
        Dm                 Em     Am
Since I met her at the Gracehill Fair


[Final Refrain]
     Dm             G              C             Am
And from the very start sure she stole away me heart
 Dm                Em     Am
Since I saw her standing there
     Dm               G      C           Am
And with her I will stay un-til me dying day
      Dm                 Em     Am
And I met her at the Gracehill Fair

     Dm             G              C             Am
And from the very start sure she stole away me heart
 Dm                Em     Am
Since I saw her standing there
     Dm               G      C           Am
And with her I will stay un-til me dying day
      Dm                 Em     Am
And I met her at the Gracehill Fair
