[D] [G]
I remember this from the time that I was born.
You know, I always remembered it being there, so I'm not sure.
I must have been, I started remembering things about three years old.
And I pick up on them every once in a while.
And when the year comes around, I say, oh Lord, I know about that.
So, that's the way it's been.
[Bm] She'll sing.
I will dance, I [B] will sing.
Oh, put it down.
That's what she's calling the chorus.
[Db] The chorus is that I will dance, I will sing, and my [G] love shall be.
I will charm every heart, and his crown I will sway.
[Bb]
Some of it's changed [G] a lot.
When we left here to take our first trip on radio,
my father [Db] sold this place to my [Bb] Uncle Grant [Fm] Carter, that daddy's brother.
And [N] he said, well, you'll come home whenever you want to.
We'll all be home together.
And anyway, many years ago, we bought it back.
Aunt Theta was good enough to buy it back for me.
It is a love song, and [G] I don't think she'd be hollering at all that in there.
I don't know.
Just be ready.
Okay, I'm sorry.
And I will sing, I will dance, I will sing, and my love.
I'll do two.
Do two.
We'll be double before our flight.
Be ready.
Be ready.
Okay.
I'll play it a little slower.
Daddy had built an orchard that went from down here to the top of the knob here.
And so we had lots of apples and plums and cherry trees and everything you could grow.
Right [C] within [G] my view, the pale and the leader, [D] and eyes [G] that gladden blue.
I will dance, I will sing, and [D] my laugh [G] shall be gay.
I will charm every heart in his [D] crown [G] I'll sway.
When I'm longing to see him, [C] I regret the [G] dark hour.
I'm blown and neglected, [D] still [G] wild and sour.
[D] [G]
[D] [G]
[C] [G]
[D] [G]
He taught me to love him [D] and call me [G] his flower.
That was blooming to cheer him [D] through [G] life's weary hour.
When I'm longing to see him, I [C] regret [G] this dark hour.
He's gone and neglected, [D] this pale, [G] wild flower.
I will dance, I will sing, and [D] my laugh [G] shall be gay.
I will charm every heart in [D] his crown [G] I will sway.

[D] [G]
He taught me to love him [D] and [G] promised love.
That was [E] great.
Okay, well thank you, sir.
That feels all over me, that's not great.
[Eb] Good job.
Well, could you tell it was a lonesome, heart-sick blues?
[N] Lonesome, heart-sick blues, lost melodic.
And this woman lost her lover.
And she was crying for him.
[Em] But she was among [G] everything that she might be [Em] able to get out of.
[A] And so right the last she [Em] sings and she dances and she just awards to [G] and fro.
[G] Yeah, sure, of course.
Always want to do [E] Wild and Flower.
Always.
