Leaving Nancy Lyrics And Easy Guitar Chords In D Major
In[D] comes the train and the[Em] whole platform [G]shakes,
It[D] stops with a shutter,and a[G] screaming of[D] brakes,
The parting has come,and my[Em] weary soul[G] aches,
Im[A] leaving my[A7] Nancy[D] O'
[2]
But you stand there so calmly determinedly gay,
And you talk of the weather and events of the day,
But your eyes tell me all that your tongue doesn't say,
Goodbye my Nancy O'
[Chorus]
And come a little closer,put your head upon my shoulder,
And let me hold you one more time,before the whistle blows.
[3]
My suitcase is lifted and stowed on the train,
And a thousand regrets whirl around in my brain,
And the ache in my heart is a black sea of pain,
Im leaving my Nancy O'
[4]
And you stand there so calmly so lovely to see,
But the grip of your hand is an unspoken plea,
Your not fooling yourself,and your not fooling me,
Good-by my Nancy O'
[5]
For our time has run out and the whistle has blown,
And here I must leave you standing alone,
We have so little time and now the time's gone
Good-bye my Nancy O'
[6]
And as the train starts gently to roll,
And as I lean out to wave and to call,
I see your first tears,trickle and fall,
Good-bye my Nancy O'
In[D] comes the train and the[Em] whole platform [G]shakes,
It[D] stops with a shutter,and a[G] screaming of[D] brakes,
The parting has come,and my[Em] weary soul[G] aches,
Im[A] leaving my[A7] Nancy[D] O'
[2]
But you stand there so calmly determinedly gay,
And you talk of the weather and events of the day,
But your eyes tell me all that your tongue doesn't say,
Goodbye my Nancy O'
[Chorus]
And come a little closer,put your head upon my shoulder,
And let me hold you one more time,before the whistle blows.
[3]
My suitcase is lifted and stowed on the train,
And a thousand regrets whirl around in my brain,
And the ache in my heart is a black sea of pain,
Im leaving my Nancy O'
[4]
And you stand there so calmly so lovely to see,
But the grip of your hand is an unspoken plea,
Your not fooling yourself,and your not fooling me,

For our time has run out and the whistle has blown,
And here I must leave you standing alone,
We have so little time and now the time's gone
Good-bye my Nancy O'

And as I lean out to wave and to call,
I see your first tears,trickle and fall,
Good-bye my Nancy O'

My Lovely Nancy Lyrics
My lovely Nancy, with eyes so bright
A smile that shines like morning light
Her laughter, like a joyful tune
Fills my heart, every afternoon
With hair like silk, and skin so fair
She takes my breath away, without a care
Her gentle touch, like a feather's grace
Leaves me in a state of pure embrace
She brightens up any room she's in
Her heart so pure, without a sin
Her words, like honey, sweet and kind
Oh, how she soothes my troubled mind
My lovely Nancy, my shining star
Without her, life would be so far
She's the light that guides my way
Through every dark and stormy day
Her love, like an endless sea
Fills me up, and sets me free
I'll hold her close, with all my might
For she's my everything, my guiding light
My lovely Nancy, my heart's desire
With her, I'll face every trial and fire
For she's the one, my heart has chosen
And in her arms, I'll never be broken.
My lovely Nancy, with eyes so bright
A smile that shines like morning light
Her laughter, like a joyful tune

Her gentle touch, like a feather's grace
Leaves me in a state of pure embrace
She brightens up any room she's in
Her heart so pure, without a sin
Her words, like honey, sweet and kind
Oh, how she soothes my troubled mind
My lovely Nancy, my shining star
Without her, life would be so far
She's the light that guides my way
Through every dark and stormy day
Her love, like an endless sea
Fills me up, and sets me free
I'll hold her close, with all my might
For she's my everything, my guiding light
My lovely Nancy, my heart's desire
With her, I'll face every trial and fire
For she's the one, my heart has chosen
And in her arms, I'll never be broken.
