[Intro]
(Orchestra)
A  G  A  G  Em7  D

[Verse 1]
D           B             Em7    A7 D
The mist of May is in the gloamin',
                               Gmaj7 B Em7
And all the clouds are holdin' still
           Bm7       Em7
So take my hand and let's go roamin',
            Gmaj7 Gb7 A       D    A  D
Through the heather    on the hill.

[Verse 2]
D           B7              Em7    A7  D
The mornin' dew is blinkin' yonder,
                          G     B7  Em7
There's lazy music in the rill,
          B7            Em7
And all I want to do is wander
            G       A7     D
Through the heather on the hill.

[Bridge]
             Ebmaj7   Cm7              Fm7  Bb7
There may be other days    as rich and rare,
             Gm7         C7             Am
There may be other springs  as full and fare,
              Bm         E7            A      Bbdim  Bm
But the won't be the same, they'll come and go
       E7     A    A7  D
For this I kno.........0w;

[Verse 3]
    Bm7                      Em    A7  D
That when the mist is in the gloamin'
                               G    B7 Em7
And all the clouds are holdin' still,
              B7               Em Em7
If you're not there I won't go roamin'
            A  Gb7         Bm    Gmaj7  Gb7
Through the heather on the hill,
