verse 1:
C     E    F  E7
Weep you no more, sad fountains;
  Am     F
What need you flow so fast?
E7       Am
Look how the snowy mountains
E         E7   F
Heaven’s sun doth gently waste.
A    Dm  A   Dm
But my sun’s heavenly eyes
G       C
View not your weeping,
G       C
That now lie sleeping
E    Am
Softly, Softly,
  G    G7
now softly, softly lies
C
Sleeping.

verse 2:
   E    F   E7
Sle---ep is a reconciling,
 Am    F
A rest that peace begets.
E7      Am
Doth not the sun rise smiling
E       E7   F
When fair at even he sets?
A    Dm   A   Dm
Rest you then, rest, sad eyes,
G      C
Melt not in weeping
G        C
While she lies sleeping
E    Am
Softly, Softly,
   C
now softly
G   G7  C
Softly lies Sleeping.
