Wildwood Flower
The Carter Family
CI will twine and will mingle my G7raven black Chair
CWith the roses so red and the G7lilies so Cfair
CAnd the myrtle so green of an Femerald Chue
CAnd the pale emanita and G7islip so Cblue
COh he promised to love me, he G7promised to Clove
CAnd cherish me always all otheG7rs Cabove
CI woke from my dream and my Fidol was Cclay
CMy passion for loving had G7vanished Caway
COh he taught me to love him, he G7called me his Cflower
CA blossom to cheer him through G7life's weary Chour
CBut now he has gone and Fleft me Calone
CThe wild flowers to weep and the G7wild birds to Cmoan
CI'll dance and I'll sing and my G7life will be Cgay
CI'll banish this weeping, drive G7troubles Caway
CI'll live yet to see him Fregret this dark Chour
CWhen he won and neglected this G7frail wildwood Cflower.
