Verse 1:

E MajorE      E7E7      A augmentedA        E MajorE
I grew up in Alabama in a valley I called home
                      B7B7
And I learned to love sweet Lilly from the start
E MajorE         E7E7     A augmentedA      E MajorE
But I had to do my duty yes I had to do my part
              B7B7       E MajorE     C7C7
But the thought of leaving Lilly breaks my heart


Verse 2:
    FF         F7F7    Bb majorBb       FF
If this war could just be over and I could go back home
                 C7C7
If I could hold and kiss her once again
    FF       F7F7      Bb majorBb      FF
Then if I should die tomorrow after loving her tonight
             C7C7        FF
Then I would not feel my life had been in vain


Verse 3:
   FF
Cause she's my Lilly of the valley
FF           C7C7
And I want her for my wife
FF    F7F7      Bb majorBb
She's my Lilly of the valley
    FF        C7C7      FF   Bb majorBb
I guess I've loved Lilly almost all my life


Outro:
    FF
All my life
