I Heard The Bluebirds Sing

I met a girl out in the hills who gave my lonely heart a thrill,
    F                                   C        C7
Her beauty seemed just like a breath of spring,
    F                             Bb
And when I looked into her eyes I thought of bluish summer skies,
    F                              C                   F
And when I held her hand in mine I heard the bluebirds sing.

             Bb
They sang of wondering (Wondering if you love her)
         F
Will she marry  (Marry if you'll ask her)
         C7                                        F
Will her heart beat (Heart beat true for him for} then and ever-more,
               Bb
And when she's lonely (Lonely is he near her}
             F
When there's sadness (Sadness will you cheer her)
          C                                               F
Will they always (Always be together) Until in death they part.

I courted her for months on end until she promised we would wed,
   F                               C        C7
We planned on being married in the spring,
    F                                      Bb
All through the long cold winter months it seemed like spring would never come,
    F                           C                   F
And every gloomy winter's day I heard the bluebirds sing.

             Bb
They sang of waiting (Waiting for the flowers)
       F
And of counting (Counting every hour)
         C7                                       F
Till the bluebird (Bluebird chirps his welcome) Into the world once more,
                 Bb
And though we're waiting  (Waiting for the sunshine)
        F
We keep hating  (Hating every storm-cloud)
         C7                                                      F
That has gathered  (Gathered over the mountains) To keep us far apart.

    F                                              Bb
And when at last spring touched the earth, We were married in the village church,
    F                                     C        C7
Our wedding seemed just like a dream come true,
    F                                  Bb
Tho many years have come and gone, Our love is still as true and strong,
   F                             C                  F
As when I found her long ago and still the bluebird sings.

           Bb
He sang of loving  (Loving every hour)
         F
That I'm married  (Married to my flower)
          C7                          F
And we're happy (Happy ever after) As since the day we met,
                 Bb
And though we're older  (Older love is sweeter)
        F
We grow fonder  (Fonder of each other)
         C7                                                        F
We'll be sweethearts (Sweethearts close together) Until the end of time.
