[Verse 1]
C G G7 F G7 C
Ye ladies and ye gentlemen,I pray you lend an ear,
G C G7 C
While I locate the residence of a lovely charmer fair;
G C G7 G C
The curling of her yellow locks first stole my heart away,
G G7 C G7 C
And her place of habitation is down in Logy Bay.
[Verse 2]
C G G7 C G7 C
It was on a summer's evening this little place I found,
G C G7 C
I met her agèd father, who did me sore confound;
G C G7 C
Saying, "If you address my daughter, I'll send her far away,
G G7 F G C
And she never will return again while you're in Logy Bay."
[Verse 3]
C G G7 C G7 C
How could you be so cruel as to part me from my love?
G C G7 C
Her tender heart beats in her breast as constant as a dove;
G C G7 C
Oh, Venus was no fairer, nor the lovely month of May,
G G7 F G7 C
May heaven above shower down its love on the star of Logy Bay.
[Verse 4]
C G G7 F G7 C
'Twas on the very next Morn’in he went to St John's town,
G C G7 C
And engaged for her a passage in a vessel outward bound;
G C G7 C
He robbed me of my heart's delight and sent her far away,
G G7 F G7 C
And he left me here downhearted for the star of Logy Bay.
[Verse 5]
C G G7 F G7 C
Oh, now I'll go a-roaming, I can no longer stay,
G C G7 C
I'll search the wide world over in every country;
G C G7 C
I'll search in vain thro' France and Spain, likewise America,
G G7 C F G7 C
Till I will sight my heart's delight, the star of Logy Bay.
[Verse 4]
C G G7 F G7 C
Now to conclude and finish, the truth to you I'll tell.
G C G7 C G7 C
Between Torbay and Outer Cove, 'tis there my love did dwell.
G C G7 C G7 C
The finest girl that graced our Isle, so every one did say.
G C G7 F G7 C
May heaven above send down its love on the star of Logy Bay!
G C G7 F G7 C
May heaven above send down its love on the star of Logy Bay!
