_ I am a [Eb] shepherd on [Bb] the hill, _ _ [Ebm] [Ab] A john to burn I drink [Bbm] my fill.
[Bb] _ _
_ _ [Bbm] _ Come what [Ebm] may and come [Bb] what will, _ [Ebm] The _
[Ab] loneliness _ will [Eb] always [Bbm] find [Bb] me.
_ _ I know [Bbm]
every rock [Eb] upon [Ab] the fell, _ _ [Eb] And every twisted root [Db] as _ well,
_ When I have a [Eb] [Fm] tale to tell. _
[Ebm] The loneliness [Ab] will [Bbm] always listen, _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _
_ Loneliness, oh [Ab] _ loneliness, _
_ _ [Bbm] Never far _ [Eb] behind _ me. _ _ _ _
[Bbm] _ _ Loneliness, oh [Ebm] _ [Ab] loneliness, _ _ _ _ [Gb] Hand [Ab] in hand _ [Bbm] beside _ [Bb] me. _ _
[Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Bbm] _ _ And in the spring [Ab] when [Bb] all is new, _ [Ebm] [Ab] And the first green shoots are [Bbm] growing through,
[Bb] And _ _ _ the [Bbm] lamb is [Ab] sporting [Bb] with the ewe, _ [Ebm] _ The [Ab] loneliness _ _ comes [Ebm] over smiling.
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Bbm] The summer _ days are [Ab] long and warm, _ _ [Eb] Around my head the swallows [Db] _ swarm,
_ And I lay to rest [Fm] among the cold, _ [Gb] And the _ loneliness [Ab] lies [Bb] down beside _ me.
_ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ Loneliness, oh [Eb] _ [Ab] loneliness, _ _ _ [Bb] Never [Bbm] far _ [Eb] behind _ me. _ _ _ _
[Bbm] _ _ Loneliness, oh [Ebm] _ [Ab] loneliness, _ _ _ [Ebm] Hand [Ab] in hand _ [Bbm] beside _ [Bb] me. _ _
[Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Bbm] _ The autumn days [Ab] are [Bb] growing dim, _ _ [Ebm] [Ab] The dying sun shines [Eb] pale [Bb] and thin,
I _ _ _ _ [Bbm] feel the [Ebm] chill [Ab]
upon [Bb] my skin, _ [Gb] And the [Ab] loneliness _ _ casts long [Eb] dark [Bbm] shadow.
[Bb] _ _ _ _ The [Bbm] winter _ is the [Ab] worst of all, [Eb] When the fell is swept by snow [Db] and _ _ squall,
I huddle by the [Ab] dry [Fm] stone wall, [Ebm] And the loneliness [Ab] curls [Bb] up beside me.
_ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ _ Loneliness, oh [Ab] _ loneliness, _ _ [Bb] Never far _ behind [Eb] _ _ me. _ _ _
[Bbm] _ _ Loneliness, oh _ [Ab] _
loneliness, _ _ _ [Ebm] Hand [Ab] in hand _ [Bbm] beside _ [Bb] me. _ _
_ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Bbm] _ _ When at [Ebm] [Ab] last the [Bb] year has run, _ _ [Ebm] _ [Ab] And I look back at all [Bbm] I've done, _ _
_ _ I turn and [Ebm] [Ab] find I [Bb] have no one, _ _ [Gb] But the [Ab] loneliness, _ _ my sole [Bbm]
companion.
_ [Bb] _ _ _ I am the shepherd [Ebm] [Ab] on the hill, [Eb] And at yonder burn I [Db] drink my fill,
_ And come what may, and [Fm] come what will, _ [Ebm] The loneliness [Ab] will [Bb] always find [Bbm] me.
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _
[Bbm] _ Loneliness, oh [Ebm] _ [Ab] loneliness, _
_ _ [Bbm] Never far _ [Eb] behind _ me. _ _ _ _
[Bbm] _ _ Loneliness, oh [Ebm] _ [Ab] loneliness, _ _ _ [Gb] _ [Ab] Hand in hand _ [Bbm] beside me.
