D Bm G The dawn was breaking bright and fair, D Bm Em A7 The lark sang in the sky, D Bm Em When a maid she bound her goIden hair, D A7 D With a blithe glance in her eye; -D Bm Em D For, who beyond the gay green- wood, Em G A7 Was awaiting her with joy, D Em G Oh, who but her gallant Renar dine, D A7 D In the mountains of Pome roy.
Chorus
D Bm G An outlawed man in a land for lorn, D Bm Em A7 He scorned to turn and fly, D Bm G But kept the cause of freedom safe D A7 D Up on the mountains high.-G-D-A7 D Bm G Full oft, full oft in the dawning hour, D Bm Em A7 Full oft in the twilight brown D Bm Em He met the maid in the woodland bow'r, D A7 D Where the stream comes foaming down -D Bm Em D For they were faithful and in love Em G A7 No wars could e'er des troy. D Em G No tyrant's chains found Renar dine, D A7 D In the mountains of Pome roy. -G-D-A7 D Bm G "Dear love," she said, "l'm so a fraid, D Bm Em A7 For the foeman's force and you D Bm Em They've tracked you in the lowland plain D A7 D And all the valleys through. -D Bm Em D My kinsmen frown when you are named Em G A7 Your life they would des troy D Em G 'Be ware,' they say, 'of Renar dine, D A7 D In the mountains of Pome roy." -G-D-A7
