[D] [G] [Em] [G]
[D] [G] I wandered into Philly's town, I sat beside the rail
I gazed upon the setting sun as it [Bm] sank behind [D] the hill
[G] I gazed on it one moment while the very side I'd seen
For the sun it was no [Em] larger [G] than when we were sweet sixteen
The little trout swims in the brook, they wander down below
They'll swim until they [Em] ever will, [G] as you so [D] long ago
[G] The little meadow by the brook is [A] just as [G] fresh and green
Was just as [Em] fresh as the wind [G] were when we were sweet sixteen
Oh how I long for those bright days to come again once more
For come again they [Em] never will for now [G] I'm sixty-four
Years passed and passed and you [Em] are [G] gone on earth we'll meet no more
[Em] But [G] we will meet [Em] in heaven [G] above on that [D] eternal shore
And [G] when we meet no [Em] more [G] we'll part in heaven we both shall reign
No more we'll sigh [Em] for days gone by [G] when we were sweet sixteen
Oh how I long for those bright days to come again once more
For come again they never [Em] [G] will for now I'm sixty-four
