Verse:

C            Edim
Lida Rose, I'm home again, Rose

 To get the sun back in the sky

G7             B7
 Lida Rose, I'm home again, Rose

 About a thou-sand kiss-es shy

 Ding dong ding

 I can hear the chapel bell chime

D7
 Ding dong ding

         Dm7                G7
 At the least sugges-tion I'll pop the question

 Lida Rose, I'm home again, Rose

 Without a sweetheart to my name

                B7
 Lida Rose, now everyone knows

 That I am hop-ing you're the same

 So here is my love song, not fancy or fine

 Lida Rose, oh won't you be mine?

 Dream of then

 Dream of a love song

That might have been

Do I love you?

            C         A7
Oh yes, I love you

And I'll bravely tell you

But only when we dream again

C            Edim
Sweet and low

 G7
Sweet and low

                B7
How sweet that mem'ry

How long ago

Forever,

Oh yes, forever

 Will I ever tell you? Oh, no.
