[Bb] When I a [F] summer [Bb] dawn behold, Its [D] silver [Bb] mesh'd in [Ebm] webs of [Bb]
gold,
[F] [Bb] Then think I of [Eb] the days of [Bb] old, And Gwen of
[F] Aberdovee,
[Cm] [Bb]
A creature woven of sunbeams bright, A magic flower of gold and [F] white,
My [Bb] heart was blinded by the light Of [Gm] Gwen of
[Bb] Aberdovee,
And in the dark she was my prayer, [F] [Bb]
For naught was good and naught was [F] fair,
But [Bb]
her glad eyes and all her, [F]
Sweet [Eb] Gwen of [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
Aberdovee.

[Bb] man shall say with mournful [Gm] tone, [Bb] [F] [Bb]
That signs and wonders [E] now have [F] flown,
When [Bb] once his eyes have [Ebm] [Bb] lit upon, Sweet Gwen of
[F] Aberdovee.
[Bb] On quiet Marion's whispering streams, It is her silver name that [F]
gleams,
The [Bb] meadow's flowers are [Ebm] but its [Bb] dreams, Of Gwen of [Eb]
[Bb] Aberdovee.
And like the meadows dreaming sigh, And like the waters flowing by,
[F] [Bb] I too can muse [Eb] and [F] fondly [Bb]
sigh,
[F] Sweet [Bb] Gwen of [F] [Bb]
[F] [Bb]
Aberdovee.
