The Roseville Fair(Chords)

	        
Intro: F    C   G  F  G  C 

verse 1: 
                         F          C 
Oh, the night was clear, stars were shining 
    F         G                   C 
The moon came up, so quiet in the sky 
                                F          C 
The people gathered 'round, the bands were tuning 
      F         G                                C 
I can hear them now, playing 'Coming Through The Rye' 


verse 2: 
                              F         C 
You were dressed in blue, you looked so lovely 
       F      G                     C 
Just a gentle flower of a smalltown girl 
                     F             C 
You took my hand, we danced to the music 
       F      G                    C 
With a single smile, you became my world  


                  F            G              C     G 
And we danced all night to the fiddle and the banjo-o 
               F    G                   C   
Their drifting tunes seemed to fill the air 
         F     G       C   G 
So long ago, I still remember 
                F   G                 C   
When we fell in love at the Roseville Fair 


verse 3: 
                    F       C 
We courted well, we courted dearly 
     F       G                        C 
We'd sit for hours in the front porch chair 
                        F           C 
A year went by from the time that I met you 
      F        G                     C 
And I made you mine at the Roseville Fair  

 
                  F            G              C     G 
And we danced all night to the fiddle and the banjo-o 
               F    G                   C   
Their drifting tunes seemed to fill the air 
         F     G       C   G 
So long ago, I still remember 
                F   G                 C   
When we fell in love at the Roseville Fair

             F        G          C       G 
Oh, here's a song for all of the lovers 
         F   G         C   
Here's a tune they can share 
                   F            G              C     G 
May they dance all night to the fiddle and the banjo-o 
           F   G                 C   
The way we did, at the Roseville Fair 
                   F            G              C     G 
May they dance all night to the fiddle and the banjo-o 
           F   G                 C   
The way we did, at the Roseville Fair
