From: Sorcha
Dammit...wrong button....and just for the sake of completeness....here they are. D 1. Springtime is coming, sweet lonesome bird, A A7 D your echo in the woodland I hear. Down in the meadow so lonesome your singing, A A7 D while the moonlight is shining so clear. G D But I know he's away in a far distant land, A D a land that is over the sea. Go fly to him singing your sweet little song. A A7 D and tell him to come back to me. D Sweet fern, sweet fern, sweet fern, sweet fern, A A7 D oh tell me, is my darling still true. Sweet fern, sweet fern, sweet fern, sweet fern, A A7 D I'll be just as happy as you. D 2. Oh, tell me sweet fern, is he thinking of me, A A7 D and the promise he made long ago. He said he'd return from over the sea, A A7 D oh why do the years roll so slow. G D I know he's away in a far distant land, A D a land that is over the sea. Go fly to him singing your sweet little song. A A7 D and tell him to come back to me. D Sweet fern, sweet fern, sweet fern, sweet fern, A A7 D oh tell me, is my darling still true. Sweet fern, sweet fern, sweet fern, sweet fern, A A7 D I'll be just as happy as you. D 3. Upon my finger he placed a small ring A A7 D on the day he was leaving his home . I promised I'd be his own little girl, A A7 D and love him wherever he'd roam. G D I know he's away in a far distant land, A D a land that is over the sea. Go fly to him singing your sweet little song. A A7 D and tell him to come back to me. + CHORUS (capo 3 rd) (The Carter Family)
