[Intro] A D A E A D A E A [Verse 1]
      A                         D
Once more little Annie, I must leave you

          A                      E
We shall part at the end of the lane

     A                  D
But promise me, little Annie

         A                E                 A
You will wait for me till springtime comes again
[Verse 2]
         A                      D
When the sun shines down on the mountain

         A                            E
And the wild sheep are wandering all alone

         A                       D
When the birds and the bees are a-humming

          A                    E             A
Makes me think that springtime won't be very long
[Chorus]
          E                       A
When the springtime comes on the mountain

        A                               E
And the wild flowers scattered o'er the plain

        A              A          D             A
I shall watch for the leaves to return to their trees

             D                E                 A
And I'll be waiting when the springtime comes again

       D                A
Yodel-ay-ee, ah-lee-oh-lay-ee

              E          D  A
Ah-lee-oh-lay-ee-hee-oh-lay-ee
[Verse 3]
      A                        D
Now springtime is here, little Annie

     A                      E
I am on my way back to the lane

         A                   D
For you promised me, little Annie

         A                E                 A
You'd be waiting when the springtime comes again
[Chorus]
         A                      D
When the sun shines down on the mountain

         A                            E
And the wild sheep are wandering all alone

         A                       D
When the birds and the bees are a-humming

          A                    E             A
Makes me think that springtime won't be very long

       D                A
Yodel-ay-ee, ah-lee-oh-lay-ee

              E          D  A
Ah-lee-oh-lay-ee-hee-oh-lay-ee
