G
    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

  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?
