One day, her papa said..'Some day we'll go down to

the village in the valley, then you'll meet a nice

young man, who’ll ask for your hand, then you'll be happy.

But very day she grew unhappier, on a mountain in 

F#           C#7                 F#

Switzerland, yoh, loh, loh, loh, loh.

F#          B          F#        B            F# 

Every day a little bit lonelier..which way to turn 

    C#7          F#

and which way to go?



CHORUS:

F#                   B

Day after day, she'd pine her heart away,

F#                         C#7               F#

yoh, loh, loh, loh, lay de yay,  but no love came her way.

F#                           F#7

Some say the maiden's dream, never came true..

                           B

she never got to go to the valley,

                     F#                 C#7

if she did or not, I really don't know, whoa, hoh, hoh, hoh..

              F#

did she die unhappy?



#5.

B          F#        C#7       F#

I'd rather think she found her love.

B               F#            C#7      F#

Wouldn't she be better if she did find love..?

B          F#        C#7                     F#

somewhere, some way..yodel-ady-oh..yodel-ady-ay.
