7        -7       6    5   -6 -6
 How green was my valley,
  -6       6       5     4     -5
 How blue were my skies,
 -5   5  4             3   -4     -4 
 I worshipped the love light
    3         -3    4    -4     5
 That shone in your eyes.
 
  7      -7 6 5        -6     -6
 Our heavenly love dream
 -6       6 5      4     -5
 Has faded and gone;
 -5      5        4      3     -4 -4 
 No more does the sunrise
    3 -3       4    -4      4
 Appear with the dawn.
 
 5  6      5      6       -6 -6 
 I still hear your laughter,
 -7  6  5        6       -6
 I whisper your name;
  5        6          5       6 -6     -6
 This world, dear, without you
  5      6 6    5    6       -4
 Will never be, the same.
 
   7        -7      6     5    -6 -6
 How green was my valley,
 -6       6      5        4      -5
 How dear were your charms;
  -5         5    4   3     -4 -4 
 Come back to me darling,
   3        -3    4    -4      4
 Come back to my arms!
