[Intro] G D G [Verse 1]
     G                   C               G
Fond memory paints its scenes of other years

      D               G
Bring me their memory still

    G                 C                G
And bright amid those joyous scenes of years

       D               G
The schoolhouse on the hill
[Chorus]
G                                 C       G
Oh, the schoolhouse that stands upon the hill

  D                   D7
I never, never can forget

     G              C                  G
Dear happy days are gathered 'round me still

  D         D7           G
I never, no never can forget
[Verse 2]
      G                 C             G
There hangs the swing upon the maple tree

       D              G
Where you and I once swung

       G                   C             G
There flows the spring, forever flowing free

    D                  G
As when we both were young
[Chorus]
G                                 C       G
Oh, the schoolhouse that stands upon the hill

  D                   D7
I never, never can forget

     G              C                  G
Dear happy days are gathered 'round me still

  D         D7           G
I never, no never can forget
[Verse 3]
       G                     C                G
There climbs the vines and there the berries grow

       D                  G
Which once would rise so high

      G                   C               G
And there the ripe nuts glistened in the grove

    D             G
Of rich October skies
[Chorus]
G                                 C       G
Oh, the schoolhouse that stands upon the hill

  D                   D7
I never, never can forget

     G              C                  G
Dear happy days are gathered 'round me still

  D         D7           G
I never, no never can forget
