[Gb] [Ab] [Abm] [Gb]
[Ab] [E] Oh, I'll [Ab] twine with my mingles [B] and waving [E] black hair
With the roses so red and the lilies so fair And the myrtle so bright with the emerald
dew The pale and the leader and eyes look like blue
I will dance, I [Em] will [B] sing, and my laugh [E] shall be gay
I will charm every heart, in her crown I will sway
When I woke from my dreaming, [A] my [E] idols were clay
All portions of love [B] had all [E] flown away [Ab]

Oh, she taught me to love her [A] and [G] promised
to love And to cherish me over all [A]
[G] others above
How my heart is now wondering, no misery can tell
She left me no warning, [D] no words [G] of farewell Yes, she taught me [Gm] to love her [B] and called
me [G] her flower That was blooming to cheer her [Gbm] through life's
[G] weary hour Oh, I long to see her [C] and regret the [G] dark
hour She's dumb and neglected, [Am] her pale [G] wildwood flower
