Here is a version I have: Wildwood Flower --------------- The Carter Family C G7 C I will twine and will mingle my raven black hair C G7 C With the roses so red and the lilies so fair C F C And the myrtle so green of an emerald hue C G7 C And the pale emanita and islip so blue Oh he promised to love me, he promised to love And cherish me always all others above I woke from my dream and my idol was clay My passion for loving had vanished away Oh he taught me to love him, he called me his flower A blossom to cheer him through life's weary hour But now he has gone and left me alone The wild flowers to weep and the wild birds to moan I'll dance and I'll sing and my life will be gay I'll banish this weeping, drive troubles away I'll live yet to see him regret this dark hour When he won and neglected this frail wildwood flower.
