{title: Jeanie With The Light Brown Hair} {composer: Stephen Foster} {lyricist: Stephen Foster} {meta: source https://www.jasonpaul.net/songs/i-dream-of-jeanie-with-the-light-brown-hair/} {capo: 0} {c: Verse 1} [D7]I [G]dream of [C]Jeanie with the [G]light brown [G]hair. [Em]Borne like a [G]vapor [G]on the [A7]summer [D]air. [D7]I [G]see her [C]tripping where the [G]bright streams [G]play [A7]happy as the [D]dai- [Em]sies that [Bm]dance [A7]on her [D]way. [D]Many were the [D]wild notes her [G]merry voice would [G]pour. [Em]Many were the [G]blithe birds that [Em]war- [A7]bled them [D7]o'er. [D7]I [G]dream of [C]Jeanie with the [G]light brown [G]hair [G]floating [Em]like a [G]vapor [A7]on the [G]soft [D7]summer [G]air. {c: Verse 2} [D7]I [G]long for [C]Jeanie with the [G]day dawn [G]smile. [Em]Radiant in [G]gladness [G]warm with [A7]winning [D]guile. [D7]I [G]hear her [C]melodies like [G]joys gone [G]by, [A7]signing round my [D]heart [Em]o'er the [Bm]fond [A7]hopes that [D]die. [D]Sighing like the [D]night wind and [G]sobbing like the [G]rain. [Em]Wailing for the [G]lost ones that [Em]come [A7]not a- [D7]gain. [D7]I [G]long for [C]Jeanie and my [G]heart bows [G]low, [G]never [Em]more to [G]find her [A7]where the [G]bright [D7]waters [G]flow. {c: Verse 3} [D7]I [G] sigh for [C] Jeanie but her [G] light form [G] strayed [Em] far from the [G] fond hearts [G] round her [A7] native [D] glade. [D7]Her [G] smiles have [C] vanished and her [G] sweet songs [G] flown [A7] flitting like the [D] dreams [Em] that have [Bm] cheered [A7] us and [D] gone. [D] Now the nodding [D] wild flowers may [G] wither on the [G] shore [Em] while her gentle [G] fingers will [Em] cull [A7]them no [D7] more. [D7]I [G]sighx for [C] Jeanie with the [G] light brown [G] hair [G] floating [Em]like a [G] vapor [A7] on the [G] soft [D7] summer [G] air.
