[Verse 1]
[D]Oh [A]swe[D]et [Bm]were [A]th[D]e[A][D]
hours, when in [A]mirth's [D]frolic throng
I [A]led up the [D]revels with dance
and [A]with [D]song;
When [A]brisk from [D]the fountain,
and [A]bright [D]as the day,
[G]my spi[D]rits o'erflow'd, and ran[A]
[D]sparkling [A]away![D]
[Bm]

[Verse 2]
[A]
[D]Re [A]turn, [D]ye sweet hours!
Once [A]again [D]let me [Dsus4]see
[D]You[A]r airly light for[D]ms of
enchantment [A]and glee[D]
Come, [A]give an [D]old friend, while
he [A]crown[D]s his gay glass,
[G]A nod[D] as you par[A]t an [D]d a[A]
[D]smile [A]as you [D]pass.[A]
[D]

[Verse 3]
[D]Wine! Come [A]bring me wine to cheer me,
[D]Friend of my heart! Come
[A]pledge me [D]high!
Wine! Till the dreams of
[A]youth again are near me,
[D]Why must they leave me,
[A]tell me, [D]why?
[A]

[Verse 4]
[D]I can[A]not [D]forget you,
[A]I w[D]ould not resign
There's [A]health in my [D]pulse,
and a spell in [A]my [D]wine.
And [A]sun[D]shine in autumn,
tho' [A]passing [D]too soon,
[G]Is swe[D]eter and dearer tha[A]n
[D]sunshine [A]in [D]June.
[A][D]
