Em A C D Em A C D Em
[Verse 1]
Em G There once was a king who called for the spring Am D Em For his world was still covered with snow Em G But the spring had not been for he was wicked and mean Am D B7 In his winter fields nothing would grow C G And when a traveller called, seeking help at the door C G B7 Only food and a bed for a night Em Am He ordered his slave to turn her away G D Em A C D Em A C D Em The girl with April in her eyes
[Chorus]
Em Bm C Em Oh, oh, on and on she goes, G D C D Through the winter's night, the wild wind and the snow Em Bm C Em Hi, hi, on and on she rides, G D C Em A C D Em Someone help the girl with April in her eyes
[Verse 2]
Em G She rode through the night till she came to the light Am D Em Of a humble man's home in the wood Em G He brought her inside, by the firelight she died Am D B7 And he buried her gently and good C G Oh, the morning was bright, all the world snow white C G B7 But when he came to the place where she lay Em Am His field was ablaze with flowers on the grave G D Em A C D Em A C D Em Of the girl with April in her eyes
[Chorus]
Em Bm C Em Oh, oh, on and on she goes, G D C D Through the winter's night, the wild wind and the snow Em Bm C Em Hi, hi, on and on she flies, G D C Em A C D Em She is gone, the girl with April in her eyes...
