G        C               G     C     G
I dream of Jeanie with the light brown hair,
Em            G  C   G      A7     D7
Borne, like a vapor, on the summer air
  G       C                  G      C       G
I see her tripping where the bright streams play,
A7           D   Em       D     A7     D
Happy as the daisies that dance on her way.
D7                          G
Many were the wild notes her merry voice would pour,
C             G            G7   Bm            D7
Many were the blithe birds that warbled them o'er:
      G        C               G     C     G
Oh! I dream of Jeanie with the light brown hair,
Am       Em     G  C   A           D7     G
Floating like a vapor, on the soft summer air.

[Verse 2]

   G       C               G   C    G
I long for Jeanie with the day dawn smile,
Em         G  C      G         A7     D7
Radiant in gladness, warm with winning guile;
  G        C              G      C  G     
I hear her melodies, like joys gone by,
A7            D  Em             D    A7         D
Sighing round my heart o'er the fond hopes that die:-
D7                              G
Sighing like the night wind and sobbing like the rain,-
C                G            G7    Bm  D7
Wailing for the lost one that comes not again:
      G        C              G     C    G
Oh! I long for Jeanie, and my heart bows low,
Am    Em      G    C   A         D7            G
Never more to find her where the bright waters flow.

[Verse 3]

  G        C               G     C    G
I sigh for Jeanie, but her light form strayed
Em           G    C      G         A7     D7
Far from the fond hearts round her native glade;
    G           C                G     C     G  
Her smiles have vanished and her sweet songs flown,
A7            D   Em          D    A7             D
Flitting like the dreams that have cheered us and gone.
D7                               G 
Now the nodding wild flowers may wither on the shore
C                G            G7   Bm      D7
While her gentle fingers will cull them no more:
      G        C               G     C     G
Oh! I sigh for Jeanie with the light brown hair,
Am       Em     G  C   A           D7     G
Floating like a vapor, on the soft summer air.
