DWhen the blackbird E7in the spring, A7'neath the willow Dtree
Sat and rocked, I E7heard him sing, E7singing Aura DLea!
DAura F#Lea!, BmAura D7Lea!
GMaid with Gmgolden Dhair
Am6Sunshine B+came B7aE7long with thee
And A4swalA7lows in the Dair
DIn thy blush the E7rose was born, A7music when you Dspake.
In thine azure E7eye the morn A7sparkling, seemed to Dbreak.
DAura F#Lea!, BmAura D7Lea!
GTake my Gmgolden Dring
Am6Love and B+life B7reE7turn with thee
And A4swalA7lows in the Dair
DAura Lea! The E7bird may flee, the A7willow's golden Dhair
Swing through E7winter fitfully - A7on the stormy Dair
DYet if thy blue E7eyes I see - A7gloom will soon deDpart
For to E7me, sweet Aura Lea, is A7sunshine through the Dheart
DWhen the mistleE7toe was green - A7midst the winter's Dsnows
Sunshine E7in thy face was seen - A7kissing lips of Drose
