[Verse 1]

I was twenty-four years old when I met the woman I would call my own

Twenty-two grand kids now growing old in that house that your brother bought ya

On the summer day when I proposed, I made that wedding ring from dentist gold

And I asked her father but her daddy said no, you can't marry my daughter
[Chorus]
G C G D C G
She and I went on the run, don't care about religion
G C G C D Em
I'm gonna marry the woman I love, down by the Wexford border
G C G D C G
She was Nancy Mulligan, and I was William Sheeran
G C G C D Em
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

We got eight children now growing old, five sons and three daughters
[Chorus]
