Verse 1
D 
Alone, all alone,
G 
by a wave -worn strand,
A 
D 
G 
And alone, and the crowded hall,
D 
The whole earth is gay,
G 
and the waves, are grand
A 
D 
G 
D 
But my heart is not there at all
A 
D 
that flies far away by night and by day
E 
A 
to the times and the joys that are gone.
D 
But I never shall forget
G 
A sweet maiden I met
A 
D 
And the valley ne 'er sleeve no more,
G 
D 
G 
T 'was not the grace of her queenly hair,
A 
D 
G 
Nor her cheeks of red roses glow,
D 
Nor her soft dark eyes,
G 
Nor her flowing hair,
A 
Nor was it her lily -white
D 
G 
D 
brow.
A 
T 'was the soul of truth,
D 
And a melting youth,
E 
D 
A 
And a smile like a warm summer's dawn
D 
That stole my heart away
One soft sunny day
G 
A 
And the valley ne 'er
D 
G 
D 
sleep no more,
G 
And the festival by a star -washed shore,
A 
As of a restless arrow cries
D 
G 
D 
My love, O my love,
G 
shall I ne 'er see thee more
A 
O my land, will you never uprise?
D 
G 
D 
A 
By night and by day,
D 
I ever, ever stray,
E 
D 
A 
As lonely this life rolls on.
D 
But to see the flag unfurled,
And my true love to behold,
G 
A 
D 
G 
And the valley ne 'er slave no more.
