She Moved Through The Fair
D C D
My own love said to me, "My mother won't mind
C D
And my father won't slight you for your lack of kind"
C D
And she stepped away from me and this she did say
C D C D
It will not be long, love, till our wedding day
D C D
She stepped away from me and she moved through the fair
C D
And fondly I watched her move here and move there
C D
Then she went homeward with one star awake
C D C C
Like the swan in the evening moves over the lake
D C D
The people were saying, no two e'er were wed
C D
But one had a sorrow that never was said
C D
She went away from me with her goods and her gear,
C D C D
And that was the last that I saw of my dear.
D C D
I dreamt it last night, my own love came in
C D
So softly she came that her feet made no din
C D
As she laid her hand on me and this she did say
C D C D
It will not be long, love, 'til our wedding day

Above ^ Try the samples and hear some sea shanties.
There are Irish songs and more. If you buy some downloads you will help to support an old musician. What a wonderful idea!
