[Intro]
A F#m7 E7 A
[Verse 1]
AThe sun is sinking A7low in the Dsky ab-ove BmGilwell.
The Apines and the F#mmaples know Dsoon we will E7part. E7
There’s a Awhisper in the A7wind of Dpromises unBmspoken,
And a jAoy that will aF#mlways remE7ain in my hAeart. A
My Athoughts will reA7turn to the Dsound of your Alaughter,
The F#mmagic of Dsinging, and ScE7outing as E7one,
And a Atime we’ll reGmember lDong ever aAfter
The Amoonlight and F#mmusic and E7campfire is Adark. A
[Verse 2]
Will we Aclimb the hill once A7more? Will we Dwalk the woods toBmgether?
Will AI feel the F#mcamp-fire's Dglow once agE7ain? E7
Will Aevery song we've A7sung ... Dstay with us forBmever?
Will Awe sing in myF#m dreams and mE7y heart until Athen? A
AUnder the A7moon the Dtraining ground lies Asleeping
oF#mut on the LDime-walk the sE7tars shine E7above. E7
AThey wonder if Gyou and DI will be Akeeping
The Amagic of wF#mood badge, or E7leave it beAhind. A
A F#m D E7 A
[Verse 3]
HaAve I worked my ticket A7well, have I Dlived the Gilwell viBmsion?
The Apromise I F#mkeep to my Dfamily in E7Scouts E7
Will I Alive what I have A7learned, conDtinue my miBmssion
Bring Astrength, hope and F#mfaith to the E7leaders aAhead A
The Abeads hang at my A7heart, reDmind me of myA kinship;
the F#mpledge to my DScouts as an E7oath to myE7self, E7
To blAaze a new Gpath of Dpurpose and Afriendship
The Adream of our F#mfounder lives E7on through the Aage A
[Outro]
