Verse:
Oh, The ye[E]ars creep slowly by, Lor[A]ena, The s[B]now is on the ground ag[E]ain
The s[E]sun's low down the sky, Lo[A]Lorena
The fr[B]frost gleams where the flowers have b[E]been
But the [Dbm]heart beats on as warmly [Ab]now, As w[Ab]when the summer days were [Dbm]nigh [B]
Oh, The s[E]un can never dip so l[A]ow, To be d[B]own in affections cloudless s[E]ky

Verse:
A hu[E]ndred months have passed, Lo[A]rena, Since la[B]st, I held that hand in m[E]ine
And f[E]elt, The pulse beat fast, Lo[A]rena, Though m[B]ine, Beat faster far than t[E]hine
A h[Dbm]hundred months this flowery [Ab]May, When [Ab]up that hilly slope we c[Dbm]climbed [B]
To wa[E]tch, The dying of the d[A]ay, And h[B]ear, The distant church bells ch[E]ime

Verse:
We lo[E]ved each other then, Lo[A]rena, Far m[B]ore than we ever dared to t[E]ell
And w[E]hat we might have been, Lo[A]rena, H[B]ad our loving prospered w[E]ell
[Dbm]Then 'tis past, The years roll [Ab]on, I'll [Ab]not call up their shadowy [Dbm]forms [B]
I'll s[E]say, To them lost years, Sleep [A]on, Sleep o[B]n, Nor heed lifes pelting st[E]orms
Outro:
[E] [A] [B] [E]
