CAPO: 4th Fret

[VERSE 1:]
Am F G
Green grows the laurel, soft falls the dew
C G F Am G
Sorry was I love when parting from you___
C G Dm F Am
But at our next meeting, I hope you'll prove true___
F G
We will join the green laurel and the violet so blue

[VERSE 2:]
Am F G
I once had a sweetheart, but now I have none
C G F Am G
He's gone and he's left me, to weep and to mourn__
C G Dm F Am
He's gone and he's left me for other to see___
F G Am F G
I'll soon find another far better than he

[VERSE 3:]
Am F G
He passes my window both early and late
C G F Am G
And the looks that he gives me, would make my heart break__
C G Dm F Am
The looks that he gave me, a thousand would kill___
F G
Though he hates and detests me, I love that lad still

[VERSE 4:]
Am F G
I wrote him a letter in red rosy lines
C G F Am G
He wrote back an answer all twisted and twined
C G Dm F Am
Saying, "Keep your love letters and I'll keep mine___

You write to your love and I'll write to mine"
[INSTRUMENTAL:] Am G Am G Am G Am G
