G                A7              D7               G 
As the blackbird in the spring, 'neath the willow tree, 
                 A7              D7            G 
Sat and piped, I heard him sing; sing of Aura Lee. 
     B7   Em   G7   C                G   
Aura Lee, Aura Lee, maid with golden hair 
           E7     A7             D7              G     
Sunshine came along with thee, and swallows in the air. 

G                 A7             D7              G           
In thy blush the rose was born, music when you spake. 
                     A7              D7                 G  
Through thine azure eye, the morn, sparkling seemed to break. 
     B7   Em     G7  C                G 
Aura Lee, Aura Lee, birds of crimson wing 
       E7        A7            D7                    G 
Never song have sung to me as in that night, sweet spring. 

G              A7               D7               G    
Aura Lee, the bird may flee the willow's golden hair 
                      A7        D7            G 
Swing through winter fitfully, on the stormy air. 
        B7      Em      G7     C               G 
Yet if thy blue eyes I see, gloom will soon depart. 
       E7           A7         D7                   G 
For to me, sweet Aura Lee is sunshine through the heart. 

G               A7             D7                 G 
When the mistletoe was green, midst the winter's snows 
                 A7           D7               G               
Sunshine in thy face was seen kissing lips of rose.  
      B7   Em  G7    C              G 
Aura Lee, Aura Lee, take my golden ring. 
           E7     A7       
Love and light return with thee, 
      D7               G 
and swallows with the spring.
