Subject: Chords Add: HI-LILI, HI-LO
Hi,

Been lurking for awhile, but guess the best
way is to jump right in: Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo

A (F) song of love is a (Fdim) sad song (F),
Hi-Lili, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo (C7).
A song of love is a song of woe,
don't ask me how I know (F).
A song of love is a (Fdim) sad (F) song,
for I (Cm6) have loved (D7) and it's so (Gm).
It sit at the window and watch (F) the rain,
Hi Lili (C7), Hi Lili, Hi Lo (F) (F7)
Tomorrow (Gm) I'll probably love (F) again,
Hi (C7) Lili, Hi Lili, Hi Lo (F).

Sorry if I didn't do the chords correctly.
These are all the words I've heard to it. And,
it is usually sung twice through.

A friend and I used to sing it 30-40 years ago,
I got this out of one of my old songbooks.
