[Verse]
             Am         G        C
When I was a lad, I had music in me
   Am       G           C         D7
My father remembers it, fondly to be
G          Am       G            C
Said I had rhythm before I could walk
        Am    G     C
Oh, his heart songs last
           Am   G   D
Though his time has passed

[Chorus]
G    C    G
Lift your hearts and sing with us
    C      G
One strong voice to raise you up
Em    D        C          G
Songs sung for me and for you
       Am      D                      G
And forever, together we're the music makers

[Verse]
               Am         G          C
it is well I remember her singing to me
    Am          G            C          D7
The sweetest of voices there ever could be
G           Am             G            C
My mother's keepsake, it's plain now to see
        Am G   C
Was her secret key
              Am G D
Her beautiful melody

[Chorus]
G    C    G
Lift your hearts and sing with us
    C      G
One strong voice to raise you up
Em    D        C          G
Songs sung for me and for you
       Am      D                      G
And forever, together we're the music makers

[Verse]
             Am     G            C
A travelling piper, that was his trade
    Am            G                  C        D7
The dancer at the crossroads, to the music he made
    G             Am                G         C
The barroom's all gone now, but his legend survives
             Am    G C
They hum his tunes today
        Am    G     D
Distant pipes still play
