[D]I saw her first on a [G]morning[A] fair,
When [D]nature smiled [A]and the [G]world was [D]young.
The sunlight gleamed on her [G]golden [A]hair,
And the [D]black-bird's carol was [G]sweetly [D]sung,
We [Bm]walked by the [A]murm-'ring[Bm] river [A]side
And [Em]home-ward [D]turned with the [Em]setting [G]sun,
And she [D]shyly whispered she'd [G]be my [A]bride.
To [D]be by my [G]side 'till life was [D]done.
 
 
And now dear love, though your golden hair,
Has lost through time it's sunny glow,
To me your still the vision fair,
I saw one morning long ago.
The world is old the wind blows chill
But once again love, hear me say
I loved you then I'll love you still,
Till all my life shall pass away.
Till all my life shall pass away
