  			Three Bells for Stephen 

         C               E7                F 
Do you remember me, dear hearts and gentle people  
  G                                 C   G 
I pray I have not stayed away too long  
       C                 E7                F  
Do you think of me, dear hearts and gentle people  
F#dim                         G 
You can buy my memories for a song  

C               E7               F 
Can you see the blue hills of Kentucky 
G                            C   G                          
Can you see my old Kentucky home  
C               E7               F 
Can you hear my sweetheart sadly singing  
F#dim                           G              G7 
In a voice as pure and sweet as heather in the gloom  

Will you pray for me, fear hearts and gentle people  
For what I have seen has brought me to my knees  
On those lonely nights I could find no sleep  
Oh I would unlock my heart and soul on strings and ivory keys  

Now I come to you, dear hearts and gentle people  
A voice across an endless sea of time  
Where ever there are songs I will be singing  
     C                 G          F 
Dear hearts and gentle people goodnight  
     C                 G          F    C 
Dear hearts and gentle people goodnight
