It was April in Georgia the robins were singing 

    C          G             D7 
She had all my love from the start 

    G          C        D7            G 
But she was to restless she wanted to wander 

               D7           G 
And she walked away with my heart 


       C                  G 
It was summer in Utah the mountains were purple 

     A7                              D7 
They told me she passed through that way 

     G           C     D7               G 
So I said I must hurry Iâ??ve got to keep searching 

              D7           G 
Weâ??ll be back together someday 


                 C     D7             G 
It was autumn in Texas the roses were dying 

  C              G              D7 
I heard that one day she passed by 

       G           C         D7                G 
But by then theyâ??d forgotten which way she had wandered 

              D7         G 
I left with a tear in my eye 


         C                     G 
Now itâ??s winter in Vermont the snowflakes are falling 

     A7                         D7 
Iâ??ve searched every place I can look 

        G            C       D7                G 
And the ghost of her promise keeps haunting me always 

                D7             G 
Iâ??m missing the heart that she took 


     C                        G 
Iâ??ve climbed every mountain I searched every valley 

A7                      D7 
Hoping my true love Iâ??d find 

        G            C       D7             G 
And the ghost of her promise is haunting me always 

             D7             G 
Iâ??ll search â??til I make her mine
