C                  C7         F           Dm
The sun is sinking low in the sky above Wanocksett.

    C             Am           F            G7
The pines and the maples know soon we will part.

          C              C7      F          Dm
There’s a whisper in the wind of promises unspoken,

       C             Am       G7         C
And a love that will always remain in my heart.

   C               C7          F             C
My thoughts will return to the sound of your laughter,

    Am       F              G7        G7
The magic of singing, and Scouting as one,

      C          Bb       F         C
And a time we’ll remember long ever after

    C             Am7       G7          C
The moonlight and music and campfire is dark.
[Verse 2]
        C                   C7             F                Dm
Will we climb the hill once more?  Will we walk the woods together?

     C          Am          F           G7
Will I feel the camp-fire's glow once again?

     C                C7        F               Dm
Will every song we've sung ...  stay with us forever?

     C            Am           G7            C
Will we sing in my dreams and my heart until then?

C         C7       F             C
Under the moon the mountain lies sleeping

 Am        F             G7           G7
Out on the Thorndike the stars shine above.

C           Bb         F         C
They wonder if you and I will be keeping

    C         Am7       G7           C
The magic and music, or leave them behind.
[Outro] C Am7 G7 C
