[Intro]
G A D G A D
[Verse 1]
D D7 G There's a bower of roses by Bendemeer's stream A D And the nightingale sings round it all the day long D D7 G In the time of my childhood it was like a sweet dream A D To sit in the roses and hear the bird's song
[Chorus]
A D That bower and its music I'll never forget D7 E A But oft when alone in the bloom of the year D D7 G I think is the nightingale singing there yet A A7 D Are the roses still bright by the calm Bendemeer
[Instrumental]
G A D G A D
[Verse 2]
D D7 G No the roses soon wither'd that hung o'er the wave A D But some blossoms were gather'd while freshly they shone D D7 G And the dew was distill'd from their flowers they gave A D All the fragrance of summer when summer was gone
[Chorus]
A D Thus memory draws from delight ere it dies D7 E A An essence that breathes of it many a year D D7 G Thus bright to my soul as it was then to my eyes A A7 D Is that bower on the banks of the calm Bendemeer
[Outro]
N.C. D
Are the roses still bright by the calm Bendemeer
