Bendemeer’s stream Harmonica Tabs

6 6 6 8 8 8 8
There’s a bower of roses

-8 -8 7 7 7
by Bendemeer’s stream,

-7 -6 -6 6 6 6
and the nightingale sings

-6 -7 -8 7 -8 7
‘round it all the day long.

6 6 6 8 8 8 8
In the time of my childhood

-8 -8 7 7 7
t’was like a sweet dream,

-7 -6 -6 6 6 6
To sit by the roses

-7 -8 7 -8 7
and hear the birds’ song.

6 6 -9 -9 -9 -9
That bow’r and its music

-9 -9 8 -8 8
I ne’er can forget,

6 6 7 8 9
but oft when alone

8 8 8 -8 7 -8
in the bloom of the year,

6 6 8 8 8 8 -8 -8 7 7 7
I think “Is the nightingale singing there yet?

-7 -6 -6 6 6 6 -6 -7 -8 7 -8 7
Are the roses still bright by the calm Bendemeer?
