How pleasant in [B] winter to sit by the fire,
Just listening [C] to the barks [G#] and [B] the howls of a dog,
Or to walk through the green fields where wild [E] daisies grow,
To pluck the
[C#] wildflowers in the [B] May morning [E] dew.
When summer [A#] is coming, [B] when summer is near,
With the trees all so green, and the sky bright and clear,
And the wee birds [Bm] all singing their [C#] love ones to,
[B]
And the young [B] flowers all springing in [C#] the [B] May morning dew,
[N] I remember the old folk, all now dead and,
[N] And likewise my two brothers, young [B] Dennis and John,
How [N] we ran o'er the heather, the wild [E] hare to pursue,
And [C#] the proud deer we hunted in [A] the [B] May morning dew.
Of the house I was born in, there's but a stone on,
And now all round the garden wild pistils have grown,
And gone are the neighbours [N]
that I once knew,
No more [Bm] will we wander through the May morning [B] dew.
Just listening [C] to the barks [G#] and [B] the howls of a dog,
Or to walk through the green fields where wild [E] daisies grow,
To pluck the
[C#] wildflowers in the [B] May morning [E] dew.
When summer [A#] is coming, [B] when summer is near,
With the trees all so green, and the sky bright and clear,
And the wee birds [Bm] all singing their [C#] love ones to,
[B]
And the young [B] flowers all springing in [C#] the [B] May morning dew,
[N] I remember the old folk, all now dead and,
[N] And likewise my two brothers, young [B] Dennis and John,
How [N] we ran o'er the heather, the wild [E] hare to pursue,
And [C#] the proud deer we hunted in [A] the [B] May morning dew.
Of the house I was born in, there's but a stone on,
And now all round the garden wild pistils have grown,
And gone are the neighbours [N]
that I once knew,
No more [Bm] will we wander through the May morning [B] dew.
