xTHE BRIAR AND THE ROSE
G D7 D G
I FELL ASLEEP DOWN BY A STREAM
C D7 G
AND THERE I HAD THE STRANGEST DREAM
C Bm B C
AND DOWN BY BRENNAN'S GLEN THERE GROWS
G D7 G
A BRIAR AND A ROSE
C D7
THERE'S A TREE IN THE FOREST
C G
AND I DON'T KNOW WHERE
C G D7
I BUILT A NEST OUT OF YOUR HAIR
G D7 G C
AND CLIMBING UP INTO THE AIR
G D7 G
THE BRIAR AND THE ROSE
G D7 D G
WELL I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG IT'S BEEN
C D7 G
BUT I WAS BORN IN BRENNON'S GLEN
C Bm B C
AND NEAR THE END OF SPRING THERE GROWS
G D7 G
A BRIAR AND A ROSE
C D7 C G
I PICKED THE ROSE ONE EARLY MORN
C G D7
I PRICKED MY FINGER ON A THORN
G D7 G C
THEY'VE GROWN SO CLOSE IT'S WINDING WOVE
G D7 G
THE BRIAR 'ROUND THE ROSE
G D7 D G
I TRIED TO TEAR THEM BOTH APART
C D7 G
I FELT A BULLET IN MY HEART
C Bm B C
AND ALL DRESSED UP IN SPRINGS NEW CLOTHES
G D7 G
THE BRIAR AND THE ROSE
C G C G
AND WHEN I'M BURRIED AND IN MY GRAVE
C G D7
TELL ME SO I MAY KNOW
G D7 G C
YOUR TEARS MAY FALL TO MAKE LOVE GROW
G D7 G
THE BRIAR AND THE ROSE
