G                               Em 
Here's a hymn to welcome in the day 
G                          Em 
heralding a summer's early sway 
                             C 
And all the bulbs are coming in 
    Am 
to begin 
    C                                  Am                  G     D 
The thrushes bleeding battle with the wrens disrupts my reverie again 

G                       Em 
Pegging clothing on the line 
G                        Em                        C 
Training jasmine how to vine up the arbor to you door 
Am 
anymore 
 C                               Am                G                  D 
Standing on the landing with the war you shouldered all the night before 

C            D                G             C 
Once upon it yellow bonnets garland all along 
C             D                   G                 C 
You were waking and day was breaking a panoply of song 
D                   C           G 
And summer comes to Springville Hill 

G                       Em 
A barony of ivy in the trees 
G                             Em 
expanding out its empire by degrees 
                                  C 
And all the branches burst to bloom 
       Am 
in the boon 
    C               Am                      G            D 
Heaven sent this Cardinal marooned to decorate our living room 

C            D                G             C 
Once upon it yellow bonnets garland all along 
C             D                   G                 C 
You were waking and day was breaking a panoply of song 
D                   C           G 
And summer comes to Springville Hill 

C                 D                 Em         C 
And years from now when this old light isn't ambling anymore 
C      D                  G 
Will I bring myself to write 
D                          Em 
Will I bring myself to write 
C                  D             G 
I give my best to Springville Hill 

C            D                G             C 
Once upon it yellow bonnets garland all along 
C             D                   G                 C 
You were waking and day was breaking a panoply of song 
D                   C           G 
And summer comes to Springville Hill
