_ [C] _ [F] Sunlight [C] shone on your [Dm] brown [Bb] chestnut hair [D] and a [F] face as fair [C] as the morn.
_ _ [Fm] _
Returned my [E] gaze [F] with such [Bb] winning ways, [Fm] my sad [C] spirit was [F] reborn. _

_ And the ways of [C] the world we did [F] take in our hearts, [F] never dreaming from long [C] day to day.
_ [F] That _ all in all [C] to be our [Bb] downfall [D] and [C] lead to sin [F] and decay.
_ _ Discontent, _ [C] discord and _ _ [F] disharmony, our lives did change along [C] the way.

[C] Though [F] you [E] have gone [C] so far [Bb] [C] away, your [F] bright smile [C] haunts me still.
_ [F] In the darkness [C] of night [G] by the _ _ [Bb] candlelight, [Fm] in the old _ [C] farmhouse [F] on the hill.
I think [C] sometimes [Fm] I see you [G] coming back from [F] some far, far away distant [C] land.
_ But ne'er a [C] brown curl [F] nor the dear little [Fm] girl come [C] inside of my gaze [F] again.
So I'll watch [Bb] and pray and [C] wait [F] for you through life's long and [C] dreary storms.
