Nora Lee Irish Song lyrics and chords

Key of A Major,1930 Unknown author. Recorded by Kate Purcell

[A]All beside a[B7] small green hill [E7]'neath a rowan[A] tree 
Sang a blackbird[B7] low and sweet 
[E7]Sang Nora Lee Nora [A]Lee,
Chorus
[A]Nora Lee Nora [A7]Lee [D]laughing [Dm]through the [A]fair 
Springtime goes the[B7] way you walk 
And [E]swallows [E7]in the [A]air
 
In your blush the rose was born
In your voice a song 
Your soft eyes a bright blue star
Lost its light among 
When the mistletoe is green 
Midst the winter snows 
Sunshine in your face is seen
In your cheeks the rose
 
Though beside the small green hill 
No glad bird may sing 
In my heart your song endures 
Take my golden ring Nora Lee, 
Nora Lee laughing through the fair 
Springtime goes the way you walk 
And swallows in the air
