[E]Oh I'll twine with my mingles and w[B]aving black h[E]air
With the roses so red and the l[B]ilies so f[E]air
And the myrtle so bright with the [A]emerald d[E]ew
The pale and the leader and [B]eyes look like b[E]lue.
I will dance I will sing and my laugh shall be gay
I will charm every heart in her crown I will sway
When I woke from my dreaming my idols were clay
All portions of love had all flown away.

[G]Oh she taught me to love her and pr[D]omised to l[G]ove
And to cherish me over all [D]others ab[G]ove
How my heart is now wondering no m[C]isery can t[G]ell
She left me no warning no w[D]ords of farew[G]ell.
Yes she taught me to love her and called me her flower
That was blooming to cheer her through life's dreary hour
Oh I long to see her and regret the dark hour
She's gone and neglected her pale wildwood flower.
