[Verse 1]
D G
I met a girl out in the hills who gave my lonely heart a thrill,
D A
Her beauty seemed just like a breath of spring,
D G
And when I looked into her eyes I thought of bluish summer skies,
D A D
And when I held her hand in mine I heard the bluebirds sing.
[Chorus 1]
G D
They sang of wondering, Wondering if you love her, Will she marry, Marry if you'll ask her,
A D
Will her heart beat, Heart beat true for him for, Then and ever-more,
G D
And when she's lonely, Lonely is to know her, When there's sadness, Sadness will en-tear her,
A D
Will they always, Always be together, Until in death they part.
[Verse 2]
D G
I courted her for months on end until she promised we would wed,
D A
We planned on being married in the spring,
D G
All through the long cold winter months it seemed that spring would never come,
D A D
And every gloomy winter day I heard the bluebirds sing.
[Chorus 2]
G D
They sang of waiting, Waiting for the flowers, And of counting, Counting every hour,
A D
Till the bluebirds, Bluebirds chirps it's welcome, Into the world once more,
G D
And though we're waiting, Waiting for the sunshine, We keep hating, Hating every storm-cloud,
A D
That has gathered, Gathered over the mountains, To keep us far apart.
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
D G
And when at least spring touched the earth, We were married in the village church,
D A
Our wedding seemed just like a dream come true,
D G
So many years have come and gone, Our love is still as true and strong,
D A D
As when I found her long ago and still the bluebirds sing.
[Chorus 3]
G D
They sing of loving, Loving every hour, That I'm married Married to my flower,
A D
We'll be happy, Happy ever after, As since the day we met,
G D
And though we're older, Our older love is sweeter, We grow fonder, Fonder of each other,
A D
We'll be sweethearts, Sweethearts close together, Until the end of time.
