The mountains were [G]green and they [Am]climbed to the [G]heavens
The [C]rivers ran [F]sparkling [C]down to the [G]sea
Your [C]laugh like a [F]bell filled my [Am]heart with such [G]gladness
Our [C]songs they were [F]happy, our [C]voices were free

How [C]precious the [F]bower, how [C]precious the rose

The [Eb]world without [Bb]you has gone [Cm]dark as the [Bb]winter
The [Eb]sounds of the [Ab]river are [Eb]frozen and [Bb]still

I [Eb]long to see [Ab]springtime, some [Eb]say that I will

We'll [Eb]walk in the [Ab]rain and we'll [Eb]dance in the [Bb]wind
We'll [Eb]build a green [Ab]bower and [Cm]fish all the [Bb]rivers
We'll [Eb]watch the stars [Ab]fall and we'll [Eb]smile once again

Oh, [Eb]joy of my [Ab]future, oh [Eb]child of my heart
