Th^Dis cruel country has driven me d^Gown, Te^Aased me and l^Died, tea^Gsed me and l^Aied, I've o^Dnly sad stories to tell to this t^Gown, ^AMy dreams have wit^A7hered, and .^D..died!

O^Gnce I was bending the^F#m ...tops of the t^Emrees, ^F#mKind thoughts in my h^Emead, kind v^Em7oices to h^Aear!

T^Dhen I took up with a girl from the w^Gest, Pl^Aayed run and h^Dide, pl^Gayed run and hi^Ade, Co^Dunt one to ten, and she's gone like the r^Gest, ^AMy dreams have wit^A7hered and d^Died!

If ^GI was a butterfly, ^F#m lived for a ^Emday, ^F#m I could be f^Emree, just b^Em7lowing a - w^Aay!

Si^Dlver moon sail up, and silver moon - s^Ghine, On the w^Aaters so w^Dide, wa^Gters so w^Aide, Sl^Dipped from the bed of a good friend of m^Gine, ^AMy dreams have wit^A7hered and d^Died!

O^Gnce I was bending the ^F#mtops of the t^Emrees, ^F#mKind thoughts in^Em my head, ^Em7kind voices to h^Aear!
