Verse 1
(D major) (A major) (D major) (B minor) (A major) (D major) Oh (A major) sweet (D major) were the
hours, when in (A major) mirth's (D major) frolic throng
I (A major) led up the (D major) revels with dance
and (A major) with (D major) song;
When (A major) brisk from (D major) the fountain,
and (A major) bright (D major) as the day,
(G major) my (D major) spirits o'erflow'd, and (A major) ran
(D major) sparkling (A major) away! (D major)
(B minor)
Verse 2
(A major)
(D major) Re (A major) turn, (D major) ye sweet hours!
Once again (A major) (D major) let me (Dsus4) see
(D major) Your (A major) airly light (D major) forms of
enchantment (A major) and glee (D major)
Come, (A major) give an (D major) old friend, while
he (A major) crown (D major) s his gay glass,
(G major) A (D major) nod as you (A major) part (D major) an d (A major) a
smile (D major) as you (A major) (D major) pass. (A major)

Verse 3
(D major) Wine! Come (A major) bring me wine to cheer me,
Friend (D major) of my heart! Come
(A major) pledge me high! (D major)
Wine! Till the dreams of
(A major) youth again are near me,
(D major) Why must they leave me,
(A major) tell me, (D major) why?
(A major)
Verse 4
(D major) I can (A major) not (D major) forget you,
I (A major) (D major) would not resign
There's (A major) health in my (D major) pulse,
and a spell in (A major) my (D major) wine.
And (A major) sunshine (D major) in autumn,
tho' (A major) passing (D major) too soon,
(G major) Is (D major) sweeter and dearer (A major) than
(D major) sunshine (A major) in (D major) June.
(A major) (D major)
