[INTRO]
[Dm] [Bb] [C] [Dm] x3
[Dm] [Bb] [C]
[Dm] [Eb] [C]
[VERSE]
Deep and [F]dark are my [C]true love's [F]eyes
Blacker [Bb]still is the [C]winter [F]turning
As the sadness of [Bb]part[C]ing [F]proves
And brighter [Bb]now is the [C]lantern [F]burning
That lightens my [Bb]path [C]to [F]her
[VERSE]
[C]No fiddle [F]tune will [C]take the [F]air
But I'll [Bb]see her swift [C]feet a-[F]dancing
And the swirl of her [Bb]long [C]brown [F]hair
Her smiling [Bb]face and her [C]dark eyes [F]glancing
As we stepped up from [Bb]Ban[C]bury [Dm]Fair
[INSTRUMENTAL]
[C] [Bb] [C] [Dm] [Eb] [C]
[VERSE]
If my [F]waiting [C]prove in [F]vain
Then I'll [Bb]pack and track [C]ever [F]take me
And the long road will [Bb]ease [C]my [F]pain
No jewelled [Bb]mankind will [C]ever [F]make me [Bb] [F]
Whisper love's [Bb]words [C]ag[F]ain
[VERSE]
[C]For in [F]drink I'll [C]seek good [F]company
My ears will [Bb]ring with the [C]tavern's [F]laughter
And I'll hear not her [Bb]last [C]sweet [F]sigh
And who's to [Bb]know in the [C]morning [F]after
How I long for her [Bb]dear [C]dark [F]eyes [C] [F]
And I long for her [Bb]dear [C]dark [F]eyes [C] [F]
How I long for her [Bb]dear [C]dark [F]eyes [C]
