[F] [C]
[G]
Our [C] forest trail bends down to [F] the river Elvebakken
[C]
There lay a small house [G] in the evening [C] sun's peace
The last rays play on [F] its dear brown [C] wall
Inside the window it smells [G] of birch [A] and oak
[F]
[G] [C] There has sorrow and longing had [F] so many years [C] of thanks
But never has it fought [G] so hard as [C] today
The good old father who came [F] from the city, us [C] and them
Now their dear son is fighting [G] the last great [Am] battle
There [F] [Dm]
[C] was a small closet [F] and under the [C] bed
So honest and faithful, [G] so well-kept [C] and late
Among the boys in school he was [F] all to [C] close
The more he grew heart-stuck [G] to mother and [A] father
[Am] [F]
[G] [C] In lessons and games it [F] was just as bad
[C] And all the silly jokes [G] can not be [C] more
And the joker stood still [F] and thought [C] of mother
And hid in his heart [G] the gruesome [Am] words
[F] [G]
[C] They did not know [F] the thoughtless [C] small
Where burning and deep sorrow [G] such a great [C] can get
They saw where he longed [F] to come [C] close to them
And get his share in the children's game [G] where they were [A] dear
[Am] [F]
[Dm] [C] But for his last thought [F] they stood in flocks [C] and rows
And they were in his hand when [C] he the [G] last prayer [C] was
With joy and with pain [F] he whispered [C] out
God let the evil sickness not [G] come [Am] to them
[Am]
[F] [G]
[C] Now mother bends over [F] her pale, pale [C] son
She kisses him, but not once, [G] for soon [C] it was over
But do not grieve, [F] for death's dark [C] gate
And no, when mother took you,
[G] it is the [A] worst done
[F]
[G] [C] Now it is also over, [F] a smile on the lips [C] laughs
Now they do not have to call [G] me for the [Am] jokes anymore
[F] [C]
