When Spring unfolds the beechen leaf, and sap is in the bough;
      Am       Em      C         Am         C      F       G
When light is on the wild-wood stream, and wind is on the brow;
      Am        Em         F        G         Am        G      Am
When stride is long, and breath is deep, and keen the mountain-air,
 Am   Em     F    C    Am     G        F      C       G
Come back to me! Come back to me, and say my land is fair!
ENTWIFE:
      Em        D       C          G         Am     G       D
When Spring is come to garth and field, and corn is in the blade;
      Em       D      C      Am     C       D       Em
When blossom like a shining snow is on the orchard laid;
      Em        D     C       G           Am       D       Em
When shower and Sun upon the Earth with fragrance fill the air,
      Em     D         C        G      Am        D       Em
I'll linger here, and will not come, because my land is fair.

ENT:

When Summer lies upon the world, and in a noon of gold
    Am       Em       C        F          C        F       G
Beneath the roof of sleeping leaves the dreams of trees unfold;
      Am       Em        F         G         Am      G      Am
When woodland halls are green and cool, and wind is in the West,
Am    Em     F     C   Am     G        F      C       G
Come back to me! Come back to me, and say my land is best!
ENTWIFE:
      Em     D         C       G          Am       G      D
When Summer warms the hanging fruit and burns the berry brown;
      Em       D         G      C          Am      D        Em
When straw is gold, and ear is white, and harvest comes to town;
      Em     D          C      G             Am     D      Em
When honey spills, and apple swells, though wind be in the West,
      Em     D       C        G      Am       D       Em
I'll linger here beneath the Sun, because my land is best!

ENT:
      Am     Em        C       Am        Am       C          G
When Winter comes, the winter wild that hill and wood shall slay;
      Am          Em       C        Am    Am         F       G
When trees shall fall and starless night devour the sunless day;
      Am     Em       F     G         Am      G      Am
When wind is in the deadly East, then in the bitter rain
      Am       Em        F       Am         F       G    Am
I'll look for thee, and call to thee; I'll come to thee again!
ENTWIFE:
      Em     D          C       G          Am       G        D
When Winter comes, and singing ends; when darkness falls at last;
      Em    D       C      Am         C         D     Em
When broken is the barren bough, and light and labour past;
 Em   D        C     G   Am       D      C      D     Am
I'll look for thee, and wait for thee, until we meet again:
   Em    D        C        G     Am         D      Em
Together we will take the road beneath the bitter rain!

BOTH:
N.C.
Together we will take the road that leads into the West,
N.C.
And far away will find a land where both our hearts may rest.
