Verse:
EmCDEm
I was twenty-four years old when I met the woman I would call my own
EmCGCDEm
Twenty-two grand kids now growing old in that house that your brother bought ya
EmCDEm
On the summer day when I proposed, I made that wedding ring from dentist gold
EmCGCDEm
And I asked her father but her daddy said no, you can't marry my daughter
Chorus:
GCGDCG
She and I went on the run, don't care about religion
GCGCDEm
I'm gonna marry the woman I love, down by the Wexford border
GCGDCG
She was Nancy Mulligan, and I was William Sheeran
GCGCDEm
She took my name and then we were one, down by the Wexford border

Well I met her at Guy's in the second world war and she was working on a soldier's ward

Never had I seen such beauty before the moment that I saw her

Nancy was my yellow rose and we got married wearing borrowed clothes
EmCGCDEm
We got eight children now growing old, five sons and three daughters

EmCDEm
From her snow white streak in her jet black hair, over sixty years I've been loving her
EmCGCDEm
Now we're sat by the fire in our old armchairs, you know Nancy I adore ya

From a farm boy born near Belfast town, I never worried about the king and crown
EmCGCDEm
'Cause I found my heart upon the southern ground, there's no difference I assure ya
