Key: G

3   -3   -4    -3*    -4  3   -3
Oh, the moon-light's fair to-night 
3* -3  -2* 3   2
a-long the Wa-bash,
 -1*  2    -3    -4    -3 
From the fields there comes 
 3    -2*  3  -2*  2   -1
the breath of new mown hay.
   3    -3  -4 -3* -4  
Through the syc-a-mores 
 3  -3   3*   -3   -2*   3    2
the can-dle lights are gleam-ing,
2  -1*  -1  -2*  3  -3  2    -2* -1 3
On the banks of the Wa-bash, far a-way.
