As recorded by The Carter Family Written by A. P. Carter
Key of E [Maybelle puts a capo on the 4th fret and plays as if in the key of C using the following chords]:
[C] Oh, I'll twine with my mingles And [G] waving black [C] hair With the roses so red And the [G] lilies so [C] fair; And the myrtle so [C7] bright With the [F] emerald [C] dew The pale and the leader And [G7] eyes look like [C] blue.
Instrumental
Oh I'll dance, I will sing And my life shall be gay. I will charm every heart, In his crown I will sway. When I woke from my dreaming, My idols was clay All portions of love had all flown away.
Instrumental
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 misery can tell. He's left me no warning, No words of farewell.
Instrumental
Oh, he taught me to love him And called me his flower 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 flower.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
