MIm LA DO RE MIm
MIm SOL
There once was a king who called for the spring
LAm MIm
For his world was still covered with snow
MIm SOL
But the spring had not been for he was wicked and mean
LAm SI7
In his winter fields nothing would grow
DO SOL
And when a traveller called, seeking help at the door
DO SI7
Only food and a bed for a night
MIm LAm
He ordered his slave to turn her away
MIm RE MIm LA DO RE MIm LA DO RE MIm
The girl with April in her eyes
Chorus
MIm SIm DO MIm
Ah, autumn does she go
SOL RE DO
Through the winter's night, the wild wind and the snow
MIm SIm DO MIm
High, autumn does she rise
SOL RE DO MIm LA DO RE MIm
Someone help the girl with April in her eyes
2nd verse :
She rode through the night till she came to the light
Of a humble man's home in the wood
He brought her inside, by the firelight she died
And he buried her gently and good
Oh, the morning was bright, all the world snow white
But when he came to the place where she lay
His field was ablaze with flowers on the grave
Of the girl with April in her eyes
Repeat chorus:
