Wildwood Flower (traditional)      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.
