A#       F7  A#
A#       D#  A#
A#       F7  A#

[Verse 1]
A#                             F7          A#
I will twine, I will mingle my raven black hair
A#                            F7        A#
With the roses so red and the lilies so fair,
A#                                 D#      A#
And the myrtle so bright with it's emerald hue
A#                       F7        A#
The pale emanita and the hyssop so blue.

[Verse 2]
A#                               F7             A#
I will dance, I will sing and my laugh shall be gay
A#                               F7           A#
I will charm every heart, in his crown I will sway,
A#                          D#       A#
I woke from my dreaming, my idol was clay
A#                         F7        A#
All portions of loving had all flown away.

A#       D#  A#

[Verse 3]
A#                               F7          A#
But he taught me to love him and promised to love
A#                         F7     A#
And to cherish me over all others above,
A#                            D#         A#
My poor heart is wondering no misery can tell
A#                          F7          A#
He left with no warning, no word of farewell.

[Guitar Interlude]
A#       F7  A#
A#       F7  A#
A#       D#  A#
A#       F7  A#

[Verse 4]
A#                               F7             A#
Well he taught me to love him and called me his flower
A#                                   F7            A#
That's blooming to cheer him through life's dreary hour,
A#                       D#              A#
Oh I long to see him and regret the dark hour
A#                           F7            A#
He's gone and neglected this pale wildwood flower.
