Do you remember me, dear hearts and gentle people

I pray I have not stayed away too long

Do you think of me, dear hearts and gentle people

You can buy my memories for a song

Can you see the blue hills of Kentucky

Can you see my old Kentucky home
C E7 F
Can you hear my sweetheart sadly singing
F#dim G G7
In a voice as pure and sweet as heather in the gloom
Will you pray for me, fear hearts and gentle people
For what I have seen has brought me to my knees
On those lonely nights I could find no sleep
Oh I would unlock my heart and soul on strings and ivory keys
Now I come to you, dear hearts and gentle people
A voice across an endless sea of time
Where ever there are songs I will be singing
C G F
Dear hearts and gentle people goodnight
C G F C
Dear hearts and gentle people goodnight
