Lyrics and guitar chords, James Thornton
Made famous by The Fureys 

When[G] first I saw the love light in your[C] eyes,,[Am
I[D] thought the world held nought but joy for[G] me
And[G] even though we[Em] drifted far a[C]part
I[A] never dream but what I dream of[D] you
[Chorus]
IG] love you as I never loved be[C]fore
Since[D] first I saw you on the village[G] green
Come[G] to me e'er my dreams of love is[C] o're,,[Am]
I[C] love you as I[G] loved you,when you were[D] sweet
When you were[Am] sweet six[G]teen
 
Last night I dreamen I held you in my arms
And once again you were my happy bride
I kissed you as I did on 'Auld Lang Syne',
As to the church we wandered side by side
