By: Sir Samuel Ferguson
Irish folk song, circa 1850
Key: G
Time: 3/4

-5-4    3    -2*3 2  1   -1
Dear thoughts are in my mind
-12 -2* 3-3  -4   4   -3   -5
And my soul soars en-chant-ed
-5 -4  3  -2*3  2    1    -1
As I hear the sweet lark sing
-12-2*  3 -4  2  -3 -2*  3
In the clear air of the day
-1 -1  3  -2* 3 -3 -44  -5
For a ten-der beam-ing smile
6  -5 -5-4 3-3 -4-54 -4   -3
To my hope has been grant-ed
-5..-4  3  -2* -2*3 2 1   -1
And to-mor-row she shall hear
-12 -2* 3-4   2   -3-2*  3...
All my fond heart would say
