-3 -3 -3 4*-44* 6 -5
I’m dream-ing now of Hal-lie,
4*-4 -3 4* -4-3 -3 -5
sweet Hal-lie, sweet Hal-lie.
-3 -3 -3 4*-44* 6 -5
I’m dream-ing now of Hal-lie,
-6* -6* 7 -8 -8
For the thought of her
-8 -8 -7 7 6 -5
is one that nev-er dies.
-3 -3 -3 4* -44* 6 -5
She’s sleep-ing in the val-ley,

the val-ley, the val-ley.
-3 -3 -3 4* -44* 6 -5
She’s sleep-ing in the val-ley,
-6* -6* 7 -8 -8
And the mock-ing-bird

Lis-ten to the mock-ing-bird.
6 6 6 6 6 -5 -5
Lis-ten to the mock-ing-bird,
-6* 7 -8 -8 -8
Still sing-ing where the
-8 -7 7 6 -5
weep-ing wil-lows wave
