Chords with lyrics

• Capo on 1st

Capo 1st fret


Verse 1:
E7E7      Aadd9/C#
I was just a curly-haired
      E7E7  Aadd9/C#
mountain boy
   E7E7 FF    E7E7 FF
On my way passing thru
     A7A7  DmDm      A7A7  DmDm
I heard a voice whisper good evening
        A7A7   DmDm
I turned to a shadow
       E7E7
And saw her there
FF    E7E7   Aadd9/C#
So all alone

Verse 2:
E7E7      Aadd9/C#  E7E7   Aadd9/C#
She had those sad china eyes
   E7E7 FF       E7E7  FF
That sang each time she smiled
      A7A7  DmDm      A7A7   DmDm
Ah, but the song it seemed to linger
        A7A7  DmDm     E7E7
So long it deepened my love for her
FF          E7E7  Aadd9/C#
Until she called me near
       BB       E7E7
And then we waltzed to our heart beat
   A7A7  DmDm       A7A7  DmDm
All around the sea was swaying
        A7A7
The breeze was praying
DmDm    E7E7     FF
Never to leave her alone
E7E7
Alone


Verse 3:
E7E7      Aadd9/C#    E7E7  Aadd9/C#
Oh, the time just slipped on by
       E7E7 FF      E7E7  FF
And with the time so did our love
        A7A7 DmDm       A7A7 DmDm
Ah, her every move just like a fever
       A7A7
Just like a fever
DmDm     E7E7  FF     E7E7
