[Verse 1]
I will [G]twine with my mingles of [D]raven black [G]hair
With the [G]roses so red and the [D]lilies so [G]fair;
The [G]myrtle so bright with it's [C]emerald [G]dew
And the pale and the leader and [D]eyes look so [G]blue.
[Verse 2]
I will [G]dance, I would sing and my [D]life shall be [G]gay.
I will [G]charm every heart, in its [D]crown I will [G]sway.
When [G]woke from my dreaming, and all [C]idols was [G]clay
And all [G]portions of lovin' had [D]all flown a[G]way.

[Verse 3]
He [G]taught me to love him and [D]promised to [G]love
And [G]cherish me over all [D]others a[G]bove.
My [G]poor heart is wond'ring no [C]misery can [G]tell.
He [G]left me no warning, no [D]words of fare[G]well.
[Verse 4]
He [G]taught me to love him and [D]called me his [G]flower
That was [G]blooming to cheer him through [D]life's weary [G]hour.
How I l[G]ong to see him and re[C]gret the dark [G]hour
He's [G]gone and neglected his [D]pale wildwood [G]flower.
