Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Oh, the night was clear and the
[C]stars [G]were shinin'
and the moon came [Am]up,...
[D]so quiet in the sky[G]
And all the people gathered round
while the band was a- tunin'
I can hear them [Am]now [D]...
[G]playin' 'Comin' Through the Rye'
She was dressed in blue and
she looked [C]so [G]lovely
just a gentle [Am]flower[D]
of a small [G]town girl
Then he took her hand and
they danced to the music
with a single [Am]smile [D]... she
became [G]his world
(chorus)
And they danced all [C]night[G][C][Am]
... to the [C]fiddle and the [G]banjo
their driftin' [Am]tunes, [D]seemed to fill the [G]air
so long [C]ago,
[G]but[Am] they sti[C]ll re memb[G]er ...
when they fell in [Am]love, [D]at the Ros[G]eville Fai[C]r
[G][Am][D][G][C]
[G][Am][Dsus4][D][G]
Now, they courted well,
and they cour[C]ted [G]dearly
They'd rock for [Am]hours [D]in
the front [G]porch chair
Then a year went by ... from
the time that he met her
and [Am]he made [D]her[G] his,
[C]at [G]the[Am][C][G][Am][D][G]
Ro[C]seville [G]Fai[Am]r[C][G][Am][D]
(repeat chorus)
[G]So here's [C]a song[G]
[Am]for all [C]of the l[G]overs
and here's [Am]a tune[D]
... that you [G]can share
May you dance all [C]night[G][Am]
... to the [G]fiddle and the banjo
Oh, the way [Am]they did
[D]at the Roseville Fai[G]r
Oh, the way they [Am]did
[D]... at the Roseville Fai[G]r
