Oh, [C] we love the homes of Ivy
[G] That surround us here [Dm]
today
[G] And we will not [C] forget, though [Fm] we be [C] far, far away
[G] Oh, the lone [C] homes of Ivy
[Fm] Every voice [A] will bid [Dm] farewell
[G] And shimmer o'er in [C] twilight
Like the old vestry veil
One day [G] a hush will call
The footsteps [Am] of a song
[Em] Will echo down the hall and [B] disappear
[Em] As we sadly [G] [A] start our duties far [Am] apart
A part of [Ab] every heart will [F] linger [G] here
[Dm] [G] In [C] the sacred [D] homes of [C] Ivy
Where we lived [A] and learned [Dm] to know
[G] That through the years [C] we'll see
In the sweet laughter glow
[Em] One day a hush [G] will call
The footsteps [Am] of a song
[Em] Will echo down the hall and [B] disappear
