LISTEN TO THE MOCKINGBIRD chrom
By: Alice Hawthorne 1854
Southern American folk song
Key: D

-3   -3   -3   4*-44* 6  -5     
I'm dream-ing now of Hal-lie, 
 4*-4 -3   4*   -4-3 -3  -5
sweet Hal-lie, sweet Hal-lie. 
-3   -3   -3   4*-44* 6  -5  
I'm dream-ing now of Hal-lie,  
-6* -6*    7    -8 -8  
For the thought of her 
-8 -8   -7   7  6   -5
is one that nev-er dies. 
  -3   -3   -3  4* -44* 6  -5   
She's sleep-ing in the val-ley, 
4*-4 -3  4* -4-3 -3  -5
the val-ley, the val-ley. 
 -3    -3   -3  4* -44* 6  -5
She's sleep-ing in the val-ley, 
-6* -6*  7   -8   -8
And the mock-ing-bird 
-8  -8  -7    7    6   -5
is sing-ing where she lies. 

-6* -6* -6*-6*  -6*  6   6  
Lis-ten to the mock-ing-bird. 
 6   6  6   6   6   -5   -5
Lis-ten to the mock-ing-bird. 
-5   6    6   6     6    6    7
The mock-ing-bird still sing-ing 
-6*   6   -6*
o'er her grave. 
-6* -6* -6*-6*  -6*  6   6    
Lis-ten to the mock-ing-bird. 
 6   6  6   6   6   -5   -5
Lis-ten to the mock-ing-bird, 
 -6*   7   -8   -8   -8
Still sing-ing where the 
 -8  -7   7   6    -5
weep-ing wil-lows wave
