BENDEMEER’S STREAM chrom
W: Thomas Moore
Irish folk song
Key: G
Time: 3/4
-1 -1 -1 -4 -4 -4 -4
There's a bow-er of ros-es
-3 -3 3 3 3
by Ben-de-meer's stream,
-2* 2 2 -1 -1 -1
and the night-in-gale sings
2 -2* -3 3 -3 3
'round it all the day long.
-1 -1 -1 -4 -4 -4 -4
In the time of my child-hood
-3 -3 3 3 3
‘twas like a sweet dream,
-2*2 2 -1 -1 -1 2
To sit by the ros-es
-2* -3 3 -3 3
and hear the bird’s song.
-1 -1 4 4 4 4
That bow'r and its mu-sic
4 4 -4 -3* -4
I ne'er can for-get,
-1 -1 3 -4 -5
but oft when a-lone
-4 -4 -4 -3 3 -3
in the bloom of the year,
-1 -1 -4 -4 -4 -4 -3
I think "Is the night-in-gale
-3 3 3 3
Sing-ing there yet?
-2* 2 2 -1 -1 -1
Are the ros-es still bright
2 -2* -3 3 -3 3
by the calm Ben-de-meer?
