Wildwood Flower(Chords)

	        nd Fret/KEY: E/PLAY: D 

D Oh, I'll twine with my mingles and A7 waving black D hair 
With the roses so red and the A7 lilies so D fair 
And the myrtle so D7 bright with the G emerald D hue 
The pale and the leader and A7 eyes look like D blue. 
 
Oh I'll dance, I will sing and my (*laugh) shall be gay 
I will charm every heart, in his crown I will sway 
When I woke from my dreaming, my idol was clay 
All portion of love had all flown away. 
 
Oh he taught me to love him and promised to love 
And to cherish me over all others above 
How my heart is now wond'ring no mis'ry can tell 
He's left me no warning, no words of farewell. 
 
Oh, he taught me to love him and called me his (*flow'r) 
That was blooming to cheer him through life's dreary hour 
Oh, I long to see him and regret the dark hour 
He's gone and neglected this pale wildwood flow'r.
