Janet sits in her lonely room

Sewing a silken seam

And looking out on Carterhaugh
F Em Am
Among the roses green
[Verse 2]

And Janet sits in her lonely bower
C
Sewing a silken thread
G
And longed to be in Carterhaugh
F Em Am
Among the roses red
[Verse 3]
Am
She’s let the seam fall at her heel
C
The needle to her toe
G
And she has gone to Carterhaugh
F Em Am
As fast as she can go
[Verse 4]
Am
She hadn’t pulled a rose, a rose
C
A rose, but only one
G
When then appeared him, young Tamlin
F Em Am
Says, “Lady, let alone”
[Verse 5]
Am
“What makes you pull the rose, the rose?
C
What makes you break the tree?
G
What makes you come to Carterhaugh
F Em Am
Without the leave of me?”
[Verse 6]
Am
“But Carterhaugh is not your own
C
Roses there are many
G
I’ll come and go all as I please
F Em Am
And not ask leave of any”
