C                              G
We dreamed our dreams as we walked on the Wicklow byway
                          C        F               G
Your promise came, like a lark's refrain, warm and true
                       C
And I gave my promise, too


[Verse 2]
                                          G
We dreamed our dreams as we kissed in the summer gladness
                         C      F                 G
Yet soon I cry, it would be goodbye then you'd be gone
                           C
Like the swallow, you'd be gone


[Chorus]
                            F              C
In the autumn's chill, on a hill, I stood alone
  Bb          C                  Dm       G
I called your name and heard the silence
              C
Where are you now?


[Verse 3]
                  G
As I linger where vows are whispered
                        C          F                 G
Another spring, oh, the sweet bird sings, I feel the pain
                           C
Did we dream our dreams in vain?

[Verse 4]
                                          G
We dreamed our dreams as we walked on the Wicklow byway
                          C        F               G
Your promise came, like a lark's refrain, warm and true
                   C
I gave my promise, too


[Chorus]

In the autumn's chill, on a hill, I stood alone
  Bb          C                  Dm       G
I called your name and heard the silence
              C
Where are you now?


[Verse 5]
                  G
As I linger where vows are whispered
                        C          F                 G
Another spring, oh, the sweet bird sings, I feel the pain
                           C
Did we dream our dreams in vain?
