Here's a hymn to welcome in the day, heralding a summer's early sway
                             C5  C5      A5  E5
And all the bulbs are coming in     to begin
    C5                 C5             A5                E5      D5
The thrushes bleeding battle with the wrens disrupts my reverie again

Pegging clothing on the line
Training jazzmen how to find up the arbor to your door, anymore
Standing on the landing with the war you shouldered all the night before


Chorus 1: 
C5              D5                G5              C5

C5                 D5                      G5              C5
  You were waking   and day was breaking,  a panoply of song
D5                     C5               G5
  And summer comes to Springville Hill

A barony of ivy in the trees, expanding out its empire by degrees
And all the branches burst to bloom , in the boon
Heaven sent this card and all maroon did decorate our living room

Once upon it, yellow bonnets, garland all along
You were waking, day was breaking, a panoply of song
And summer comes to Springville Hill

C5                D5                 E5          G5
  And years from now when this old light isn't ambling anymore
C5      D5               E5           G5
Will I bring myself to writ - E-ite - E-ite-ite - E-ite
C5                   D5               G5
  I give my best to Springville Hill
