(Intro)
[Dm]
(Verse)
Come, all you fair and [Am]tender girls
That [Dm]flourish in your prime
Be[F]ware, be[C/E]ware, keep your [Dm7]garden fair
Let no man steal your [G]thy[A]me
Let [Dm]no man [C]steal [Am]your [Dm]thyme
(Verse)
For when your thyme is [Am]past and gone
He'll [Dm]care no more for you
And [F]in the [C/E]place your [Dm7]time was waste
Will spread all o'er with [G]rue[A]...
Will [Dm]spread all [C]o'er [Am]with [Dm]rue
(Verse)
A woman is a branchy [Am]tree
And [Dm]man's a clinging vine
And [F]from her [C/E]branches [Dm7]carelessly
He'll take what he can [G]fin[A]d..
He'll [Dm]take what [C]he [Am]can [Dm]find
He'll take what [C]he [Am]can [Dm]find
