D G D
Thou wilt come no more, gentle Annie,
A
Like a flower thy spirit did depart;
D G D
Thou art gone, alas! like the many
A D
That have bloomed in the summer of my heart.
G D
Shall we nevermore behold thee;
A
Never hear thy winning voice again
D G D
-- When the Springtime comes, gentle Annie,
A D
When the wild flowers are scattered o'er the plain?
We have roamed and loved mid the bowers
When thy downy cheeks were in their bloom;
Now I stand alone mid the flowers
While they mingle their perfumes o'er thy tomb.
Ah! the hours grow sad while I ponder
Near the silent spot where thou art laid,
And my heart bows down when I wander
By the streams and the meadows where we strayed.
