The Sweetheart of Sigma Chi 
Words by Byron D. Stokes, Albion 1913
 C                                 
When the world goes wrong, as it's bound to do
                       E7      A7
And you've broken Dan Cupid's bow
         Dm
And you long for the girl you used to love
   D7                G  G7
the maid of the long ago
  C
Why light your pipe, bid sorrow avaunt,
  C                        C7       F
Blow the smoke from your altar of dreams
     Ebdim.                   C          A7
And wreathe the face of your dream-girl there
 .    D                           G  G7
The love that is just what it seems.
    C          E7            A7
The girl of my dreams is the sweetest girl
   Dm     A7      Dm
Of all the girls I know
 .    G      G7          C       A7
Each sweet co-ed, like a rainbow trail
 D7.                G7
Fades in the after glow
   C            E7           A7
The blue of her eyes and the gold of her hair
     Dm             A7       Dm
Are a blend of the western sky
         F          B7
And the moonlight beams
        C          A7
On the girl of my dreams
          D7           G     C C7
She's the Sweetheart of Sigma Chi
       F          B7
And the moon still beams
 .        C  B  Bb A7
On the girl of my dreams
            D7          G    C
She's the sweetheart of Sigma Chi.

Last 3 lines are for the "big"' finish but were not part of the song as written.

This song was done by many artists including Bing Crosby, Dean Martin and many orchestras in the 30s to the 50s. It is still the official song of the Sigma Chi Fraternity.
