Verse 
G           D Em           C        G 
Must've been    in late September 
            D       G   D/F#    Em    G 
When last I climbed     Reunion Hill 
         D    Em           C       G 
I fell asleep    on Indian Boulder 
              D     G   D/F#     G     D 
And dreamed a dream   I will not tell 
       D                    G     D 
I came home as the sun went down 
        C                D       G 
One eye trained upon the ground 
     D   Em              C       G 
Even now    I find their things 
         D      G     D/F#   G 
Glasses, coins,   and golden rings

Verse 
         D     Em                    C     G 
It's ten years     since that ragged army 
        D           G  D/F#      Em    G 
Limped across these    fields of mine 
            D      Em              C       G 
I gave them bread,     I gave them brandy 
            D     G  D/F#      G      D 
But most of all I    gave them time 
           C     G                  D 
My well is deep,    the water pure 
                G               D      G 
The streams are fed by mountain lakes 
              D    Em            C        G 
I cleaned the brow     of many a soldier 
        D      G  D/F#      G          C 
Dousing for my    husband's face 

Bridge 
                   G       D     C 
I won't forget our sad farewell 
                 G          D 
And how I ran to climb that hill 
                       C                 D 
Just to watch him walk across the valley 
        C              G 
And disappear into the    trees

Verse 
            D Em              C    G 
Along there       in a sea of blue 
           D     G D/F# Em    G 
It circles every   afternoon 
         D    Em                C    G 
A single hawk    in God's great sky 
        D         G D/F#      G      D 
Looking down with   God's own eyes 
          C    G          D 
He soars above    Reunion Hill 
          C             D      G 
I pray he spiral higher still 
           D    Em        C    G 
As if from such    an altitude 
              D    G     D/F#    G 
He might just keep   our love in view 

Instrumental 
G D Em C G D Em G D/F# G 

Outro 

G           D Em           C        G 
Must've been    in late September 
            D       G   D/F#    Em    G 
When last I climbed     Reunion Hill
