          E                       A            E                  B7
    Last night the pale moon was shining, last night when all was still,
           E                  A            E        B7      E
    I was wandering alone in sadness out among the woodland hills.
       E                 A            E                  B7
    I heard the birds a-singing out among the trees and views,
        E                  A            E             B7         E
    and all the birds, my darling, were singing, were singing of you.
      A                  E                                     B7
Were singing, singing of you, my love were singing, singing of you,
    E                  A           E             B7         E
and all the birds, my darling were singing, were singing of you.
        E                  A          E              B7
    I think of you in the daytime, I dream of you by night,
       E                     A               E        B7           E
    I wake and wish you was here, love, and tears are blinding my sight.
          E                       A            E                  B7
    The flowers that slumber so sweetly, the stars are above the blue,
         E                 A           E            B7          E
    oh, heaven itself, my darling, is thinking, is thinking of you.
     A                    E                                     B7
Is thinking, thinking of you, my love, is thinking, thinking of you,
     E                 A           E            B7          E
oh, heaven itself, my darling, is thinking, is thinking of you.
      E                  A            E                   B7
    I open my window so gently, look down on the dreaming view,
        E                  A            E           B7           E
    and all the world, my darling, was sighing, was sighing for you.
     A                    E                                     B7
Was sighing, sighing for you, my love, was sighing, sighing for you,
    E                   A           E            B7          E
and all the world , my darling, was sighing, was sighing for you.
