Between The Nab and Nancy

Between The Nab And Nancy (Arthur Wakefield)

BETWEEN THE NAB AND NANCY (Arthur Wakefield) – {with Dave's chords - Capo on 2}

G D C G
There’s a river and she rises, moorlands high plateau
G D C G
And tumbles down the hillside, how swift the waters flow
G Bm7 Am7 Em
There between the Nab and Nancy, gentle waters glide
G D C G
This place that I belong to, by White Nancy’s side

D C E
By White Nancy’s side, she means so much to me
G Bm7 Am7 G
That’s the place I long for, where I want to be
Em D
And if home is where the heart is
C G
Here let mine abide

I came here as a stranger many years ago
She gave to me a welcome when my heart was low
Restored to me my dignity, gave me back my pride
A reason for living by White Nancy’s side

Many friends that I have made here, loyal and so true
And giving never taking, always smiling through
Friendship here and comfort to ease a troubled mind
And when a friend I needed, here a friend I’d find

I’ve watched my children grow here, their laughter, their fun
A childhood well remembered, to manhood they have come
Now that they are leaving to travel far and wide
Memories to take with them of White Nancy’s side

There’s a river and she rises, moorlands high plateau
And tumbles down the hillside, how swift the waters flow
There between the Nab and Nancy gentle waters glide
This place that I belong to, by White Nancy’s side
