    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
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 that I gave to Nancy Spain?
