Intro: A augmentedA E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE

           A augmentedA    E MajorE
The greatest friend I have in life
            A augmentedA
Has brought me here to dwell
         E MajorE
Awhile among your green, green hills
         A augmentedA
And by the watery well
          E MajorE
The water from that wondrous well
          A augmentedA
Has made my eyes to see
            E MajorE
And loosed my tongue to sing with joy
      B7B7     E MajorE
That such a friend can be

(A augmentedA E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE)

           A augmentedA    E MajorE
The greatest friend I have in life
           A augmentedA
Was hidden long from me
          E MajorE
Above the mountains cold and wide
          A augmentedA
Beneath the sacred tree
            E MajorE
That sacred tree whose bark I touched
             A augmentedA
Whose leaves did tell to me
            E MajorE
The ancient tales that made me sure
        B7B7   E MajorE
My friend would come to me

(A augmentedA E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE)

           A augmentedA    E MajorE
My greatest friend a song has given
          A augmentedA
To sing where I may go
         E MajorE
To sing among the green, green hills
           A augmentedA
And where the waters flow
           E MajorE
The waters from that wondrous well
           A augmentedA
That made my eyes to see
          E MajorE
And made my mind to ever show
      B7B7    E MajorE
My greatest friend to me

(A augmentedA E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE)
