I'll try it tonight; I have a steady gig at an 1860's hotel (Cosmopolitan in Old Town San Diego--hey, you could stay there while you were in town for Spring Harp Fest!), and play this one «all the time» . . .

This song is easy to play in12th position. Use a D harp, and start on 4 blow, it will be in G. 
 
4 4 4 -4 4 -6 6-5-4
The years creep slowly by, Lorena.
 
5 -5 6 -5 -6 6 -5
Snow is on the grass again.
 
4 4 4 -4 4 -6 6-5-4
The sun is sinking low, Lorena.
 
5 -5 6 -5 -6 6 -5
Frost is where the flowers have been.
 
-4 -4 -4-4-4 -5 -5 5
BUT MY (Em) HEART BEATS ON AS WARMLY (Bm) NOW,
 
 5 -6   5 5 5 6 -5 5 -4 
AS (B7) WHEN THE SUMMER DAYS WERE (Em) NIGH; (D7)

THE (G) SUN CAN NEVER (G7) DIP SO (C) LOW,

OR (D7) DOWN AFFECTIONS CLOUDLESS (G) SKY.
