G D G
[Verse 1]
G C G
T’was just after Christmas I remember the year,
G D
A boy and his sweetheart sat there on a peer,
G C G
The boy, he was leaving for over the foam,
G D G
and he said, “I’ll be back when the robins come home”.
[Chorus]
C G
Well, I will be back when the robins come home,
G D
I’ll have enough money to make you my own,
G C G
Don’t be too lonely now while I am gone,
G D G
Cause I will be back when the robins come home.
[Verse 2]
G C G
The winter passed slowly, sometimes he was sad
G D
He said in his letters the weather was bad
G C G
And that me missed her while out on the foam
G D G
And he prayed for the day when the robins come home.
[Chorus]
C G
Well, I will be back when the robins come home,
G D
I’ll have enough money to make you my own,
G C G
Don’t be too lonely now while I am gone,
G D G
Cause I will be back when the robins come home.
[Interlude]

G D G
[Verse 3]
G C G
The scooner she waited for he was coming at last
G D
But joy turned to sorrow for her flag was half mast
G C G
Teardrops were falling on the first day of spring
G D G
As tears wet his casket the robin did sing.
Chorus (repeat)
C G
Well, I will be back when the robins come home,
G D
I’ll have enough money to make you my own,
G C G
Don’t be too lonely now while I am gone,
G D G
Cause I will be back when the robins come home.
[Outro]
G D G
Yes, I will be back when the robins come home
