              G    A7               F#m7   C#m
Proud Margret stood at her father's doorway

   E           Dsus2  Em
As straight as willow wand

             A               G
And by there came a gardener bold

     A   G           Bsus4 B
With red rose in his hand
[Verse]
            G   A              F#m7  C#m
O you shall have my rose, fair maiden

       E         Dsus2     Em
If you give your flower to me

          A                        G
Among the flowers in your father's garden

     A      G        Bsus4 B
I'll make a gown for thee
[Verse]
                G  A7               F#m7   C#
Your gown shall be   sweet smelling thyme

     E    Dsus2 Em
Your apron celandine

          A           G
Your petticoat of the chamomile

     A7        G         Bsus4 B
Come kiss sweetheart and join
[Verse]
                 G  A7              F#m7   C#m
Your glove shall be   of the clover flower

     E            Dsus2  Em
Your shoes of the rue so fine

               A                   G
I'll line them with the cornflower blue

   A         G         B
So join your love with mine

             G         Em
So join your love with mine
[Instrumental] G5 E5 G5 E5 G5 E5 G5 E5 G5 E5 A7 G5 E5 G5 E5 G A C A7 D F# [Verse]
               G   A7          F#m7 C#m
Since you have made a gown for me

 E        Dsus2  Em
Among the summer flowers

          A7              G
So I will make a suit for thee

 A        G      Bsus4   B
Among the winter showers
[Verse]
               G   A7            F#m7  C#m
The milk-white snow will be your shirt

     E         Dsus2 Em
That lies your body next

                    A7                G
And the night-black rain will be your coat

         A         G       Bsus4
With the wind gale at your breast
G5 E5 G5 E5 G5 E5 G5 E5 [Verse]
               G5 E5            G5 E5
The horse that you shall ride upon

     G5 E5                G5 E5
Will be of the wintry grey

          A7            G
And every time that you pass by

     A7       G     Bsus4 B
I'll wish you were away

                       G5 E5
I'll wish you were away
