When the blackbird in the spring [D] on the willow [G] tree
Sat and rocked, [Am] I heard him sing, [D] singing, O'er [G] a leaf
O'er a [B] leaf, [Em] O'er a [B] leaf [Em] made of [B] golden hair
[G] Sunshine came [Am] along with thee and [E] swallows [G] in the air
O'er [B] a leaf, [Em] O'er a leaf made of [G] golden hair
Sunshine came [Am] along with thee [A] and swallows in the air
In thy blush the [Am] rose was [D] born, music when [G] you spake
Through thine [Am] azure eye the morn, [E] sparkling seemed [G] to break
O [B]'er a [Em] leaf, O'er [B] a leaf [G] birds of [B] crimson wing
[G] Never song [Am] have sung to me [E] as in that [G] sweet spring
O'er [B] a leaf, O'er a leaf [G] made of golden hair
Sunshine came [Am] along with thee [D] and swallows [G] in the air
O'er a leaf [Am] the bird may flee [E] the willow's [G] golden hair
Swing through [Am] imperfect fully [D] on the [G] stormy air
Yet [B] if thy [Em] blue eyes [B] I [Em] see, bloom will soon [B]
depart
[G] For to me [Am] sweet O'er a leaf [E] is sunshine through [G] the heart
O'er [B] a [Em] leaf, O [D]'er a leaf [G] made of golden hair
Sunshine [Am] came along with thee [D] and swallows [G] in the air
When the [Am] mistletoe was [A] green midst the winter [G]
snow
Sunshine in [Am] thy face was [E] seen, hissing lips [G] of rose
O'er [B] a leaf, [Em] O'er [B] a leaf [Em] take my [B] golden ring
[G] Love and light [Am] return with thee [E] and swallows with [G] the spring
O'er [B] a leaf, [Em] O'er [G] a leaf made of golden hair
Sunshine [A] came [Am] along with thee [D] and swallows [G] in the air
