[Verse 1]
C F Dearest love, do you remember C G When we last did meet, C F How you told me that you loved me C G C Kneeling at my feet. G Am Oh how proud you stood before me F G G7 In your suit of blue. C F There you vowed to me and country C G C Ever to be true.
[Chorus]
F C Weeping sad and lonely C G Hopes and fears, how vain. Am F When this cruel war is over, C G C Pray that we meet again.
[Verse 2]
C F When the summer breeze is sighing C G Mournfully along, C F Or when autumn leaves are falling, C G C Sadly breathes this song. G Am Oft in dreams I see thee lying F G G7 On the battle plain. C F Lonely, wounded, even dying, C G C Calling out in vain.
[Chorus]
F C Weeping sad and lonely C G Hopes and fears, how vain. Am F When this cruel war is over, C G C Pray that we meet again.
[Verse 3]
C F If amid the din of battle C G Nobly you should fall, C F Far away from those that love you, C G C None to hear you call, G Am Who would whisper words of comfort? F G G7 Who would ease your pain? C F Ah, the many cruel fancies C G C Ever in my brain.
[Chorus]
F C Weeping sad and lonely C G Hopes and fears, how vain. Am F When this cruel war is over, C G C Pray that we meet again.
[Verse 4]
C F But our country called you, darling, C G Angels cheer your way. C F While our nation's sons are fighting, C G C We can only pray. G Am Nobly strike for God and Liberty, F G G7 Let all nations see C F How we love the starry banner, C G C Emblem of the free.
