The Roseville Fair

[INTRO:] F    C   G  F  G  C

[VERSE 1:]
                         F          C
Oh, the night was clear, stars were shining
    F         G                   C
The moon came up, so quiet in the sky
                                F          C
The people gathered 'round, the bands were tuning
      F         G                                C
I can hear them now, playing 'Coming Through The Rye'


[VERSE 2:]
                              F         C
You were dressed in blue, you looked so lovely
       F      G                     C
Just a gentle flower of a smalltown girl
                     F             C
You took my hand, we danced to the music
       F      G                    C
With a single smile, you became my world


[CHORUS:]
                  F            G              C     G
And we danced all night to the fiddle and the banjo-o
               F    G                   C
Their drifting tunes seemed to fill the air
         F     G       C   G
So long ago, I still remember
                F   G                 C
When we fell in love at the Roseville Fair


[VERSE 3:]
                    F       C
We courted well, we courted dearly
     F       G                        C
We'd sit for hours in the front porch chair
                        F           C
A year went by from the time that I met you
      F        G                     C
And I made you mine at the Roseville Fair


[CHORUS:]
                  F            G              C     G
And we danced all night to the fiddle and the banjo-o
               F    G                   C
Their drifting tunes seemed to fill the air
         F     G       C   G
So long ago, I still remember
                F   G                 C
When we fell in love at the Roseville Fair

[CHORUS 2:]
             F        G          C       G
Oh, here's a song for all of the lovers
         F   G         C
Here's a tune they can share
                   F            G              C     G
May they dance all night to the fiddle and the banjo-o
           F   G                 C
The way we did, at the Roseville Fair
                   F            G              C     G
May they dance all night to the fiddle and the banjo-o
           F   G                 C
The way we did, at the Roseville Fair
