The Magpies Nest

G G Oh, if I was the king G I would make you the queen F I would roll you in my arms C Where the meadows are green G I would roll you in my arms C Lay you down to rest G F Beside my Irish fairy C G In the magpie's nest G For the magpie's nest G Is a cottage neat and clean F And it stands beside the Shannon C Where the meadows are green G And I never saw a princess C With beauty such as this G F My little Irish fairy C G In the magpie's nest G F C G C G F C G
