[D] Hear, O God, my [B] own true [A] lover, As we sing the [D] lover's song,
[G] How it breaks my [D] heart to leave [Bm] you, [G] Now the [A] caribou is gone.
[D] High above the [A] dawn is waking, And my tears are [D] falling rain,
[G] For the caribou [D] [Bm] we [G] may
[A] never [D] meet again.
[G] Like a drop [A] [D] feeding, [Bm] [G] And a [A] kiss, so [F#m] sweet it was,
[D] [G] But the joy [A] of [F#m] lover's meeting, [Bm] For [G] pure love's come [C] about.
[A] Now [D] the heart is [A] calling, This will be our [D] last goodbye,
Though [G] the call [D] is over, [Bm] I [G] will [A] love you till [D] I die.
[G] Like a drop,
[A] my [D] heart was feeding, [Bm] And [G] your [A] kiss was [F#m] sweet as wine,
[D] [G] But the joy [A] of [F#m] lover's [Bm] meeting, For [G] pure love's come [C] about.
[A] [D] Now the heart [A] is calling, This will be our [D] last goodbye,
Though [G] the call is [D] over, [Bm] [G]
[A] [D] I will [G]
[D] [Bm] [G]
[A] love you till [D] I die.
[A] [D]
