Star Of The County Down
I usually play this song with capo on 2nd fret.
[Verse 1]
Am C G C Am G
Near to Banbridge town, in the County Down, one morning in July
Am C G C F G Am
Down a boreen green came a sweet colleen and she smiled as she passed me by
C Dm C Am G
She looked so neat from her two white feet to the sheen of her nut-brown hair
Am C G Am F G Am
Sure a coaxing elf, I'd to shake myself, to make sure I was really there
[Chorus]
C Dm C Am G
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and from Galway to Dublin town
Am C G Am F G Am
No maid I've seen like the brown Colleen that I met in County Down
[Verse 2]
Am C G C Am G
As she onward sped, sure I shook my head and I gazed with a feeling quare
Am C G C F G Am
And I said, says I to a passer-by, who's the maid with the nut-brown hair?
C Dm C Am G
He smiled at me and with pride says he, that's the gem of Irelands crown
Am C G Am F G Am
She's young Rosie McCann from the banks of the Bann, she's the star of the County Down
[Chorus]
C Dm C Am G
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and from Galway to Dublin town
Am C G Am F G Am
No maid I've seen like the brown Colleen that I met in County Down
[Verse 3]
Am C G C Am G
She'd a soft brown eye and a look so sly and a smile like the rose in June
Am C G C F G Am
And you held each note from her lily-white throat, as she lilted an Irish tune
C Dm C Am G
At the pattern dance you were in trance as she tripped through a jig or reel
Am C G Am F G Am
When her eyes she'd roll, she would lift your soul as your heart she would likely steal
[Chorus]
C Dm C Am G
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and from Galway to Dublin town
Am C G Am F G Am
No maid I've seen like the brown Colleen that I met in County Down
[Verse 4]
Am C G C Am G
At the harvest fair she'll be surely there and I'll dress my Sunday clothes
Am C G C F G Am
With my shoes shon bright and my hat cocked right for a smile from the nut-brown Rose
C Dm C Am G
No pipe I smoke, no horse I'll yoke, let my plough with the rust turn brown
Am C G Am F G Am
Till a smiling bride by my fireside sits the star of the County Down
[Chorus] x2
C Dm C Am G
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and from Galway to Dublin town
Am C G Am F G Am
No maid I've seen like the brown Colleen that I met in County Down

When I look Wikipedia Colleen is Irish slang for girl, woman, it also refers back to Cailin also as girl o woman, and also when I play an Am after the word down it doesn’t sound resolved to me. Each phrase resolves and starts over in the next stanza
+2
It sounds better if u play the Am after the word down

i could be wrong, but i dont think the girl's name is colleen. I think its cailin, which is the Irish word for girl
