Here upon the quiet country village stood the maple on the hill
A7 D7
There I sat with my Geneva long ago
G C G
When the stars were shining brightly we could hear the whippoorwill
D7 G
As we sat beneath the maple on the hill
C G
We would sing love songs together when the birds had gone to rest
A7 D7
And we'd listened to the murmur of the leaves
G C G
Then you'd throw your arms around me lay your head upon my chest
D7 G
As we sat beneath the maple on the hill
C G
Now we're getting old and feeble and our hair is turning gray
A7 D7
We no longer hear the rippling of the leaves
G C G
Still I always love you darling as I did those starry nights
D7 G
When we sat beneath the maple on the hill
C G
Don't forget me little darling as they lay me down to rest
A7 D7
Will you keep this final promise that you gave
G C G
While you linger there in silence thinking only of the past
D7 G
May your teardrops kiss the flowers on my grave
