  31 One evenin' for pleasure
  32   F                   C           G    C
  33 I rambled to view the fair fields all alone
  34 C                    F
  35 Down by the banks of Loch Erin
  36       G                        C
  37 Where beauty an' pleasure were known
  38   Am                       Em
  39 I spied a fair maid at her labor
  40       Am                      G
  41 Which caused me to stay for a while
  42       C            Am         Em
  43 An' I thought of a goddess of beauty
  44 F               Fm             C
  45 Bloomin' bright star of Bright Isle.
  46
  47   C         Am          Em
  48 I humbled myself to her beauty
  49       F      G              C
  50 &quot;Fair maiden where do you belong?
  51         C    Am       Em
  52 Are you from heaven descended
  53 Dm                      G7
  54 Abidin' in Cupid's fair throne.&quot;
  55        Am                    Em
  56 &quot;Young man I will tell you a secret
  57      Am                      Em
  58 It's true I'm a maid that is poor
  59        C                        Am
  60 And to part from my vows and my promise
  61    F                        Fm
  62 Is more that my heart can endure.
  63      C           Em/b       Am
  64 Therefore I'll remain at my service
  65        Em                          G
  66 And go through all my hardship and toil
  67     C            Em/b         Am
  68 And wait for the lad that has left me
  69      F           G              C
  70 All alone on the banks of Belle Isle.&quot;

  75 &quot;Young maiden I wish not to banter
  76       F              G          C
  77 'T'is true I've come here in disguise
  78        C          Em/b          Am
  79 I came here to fulfill our last promise
  80     Dm                     G
  81 An' hoped to give you a surprise
  82   Am                       G
  83 I own you're a maid I love dearly
  84            Am         Em            G
  85 An' you've been in my heart all the while
  86     C           Em/b     Am
  87 For me there is no other damsel
  88         F               G             C
  89 Than my bloomin' bright star of Belle Isle.&quot;
