[C] Oh I'll twine with my mingles and [G7] waving black [C] hair
With the roses so red and the [G7] lilies so [C] fair
And the myrtle so [C7] bright with the [F] emerald [C] dew
The pale and the leader and [G7] eyes look like [C] blue

[C] Oh I'll dance I will sing and my [G7] laugh shall be [C] gay
I will charm every heart in his [G7] crown I will [C] sway
When I woke from my [C7] dreaming my [F] idol was [C] clay
All portion of love had [G7] all flown a[C]way

[C] Oh he taught me to love him and [G7] promised to [C] love
And to cherish me over all [G7] others a[C]bove

[C] Oh he taught me to love him
And [G7] called me his [C] flower
That's blooming to cheer him
Through [G7] life's dreary [C] hour
Oh I long to see [C7] him and re[F]gret the dark [C] hour
He's gone and neglected this [G7] pale wildwood [C] flower
