Bb
Oh the stars they did shine
              Eb                  Bb  
The night you swore that you'd be mine
                              F              Bb
And you promised always to be true and to be kind
        Bb 
On that Shenandoah Hill
          Eb           Bb 
Where our love bloomed until
        Gm      F                   Bb
I went away and left those promised behind

[Chorus]
Bb   
But when I rise from the timberline
              F                      Bb  
And call your name will you remember mine?
                                           Eb7
And the sweetest kiss will be the tie that binds
                    Bb   F            Bb
Like the wild, wild rose and the columbine

[Verse]
Bb
To that place I will go
          Eb               Bb
Where the wildwood flowers grow
                         F             Bb
With a ribbon in my hair and a gown of calico
         Bb
To those Shenandoah Hills
             Eb        Bb
I'll go back I swear I will
        Gm      F                      Bb
To the sweetest kiss my lips will ever know

[Chorus]
Bb   
But when I rise from the timberline
              F                      Bb  
And call your name will you remember mine?
                                           Eb7
And the sweetest kiss will be the tie that binds
                    Bb   F            Bb
Like the wild, wild rose and the columbine

[Chorus]
Bb   
But when I rise from the timberline
              F                      Bb  
And call your name will you remember mine?
                                           Eb7
And the sweetest kiss will be the tie that binds
                    Bb   F            Bb
Like the wild, wild rose and the columbine
