Intro: 2/2 | | | | 𝄎 |
G D Em C
1. The morn was break-ing bright and fair
G Em Am D
The lark sang in the sky, | |
G D Em C
When the maid she bound her gol-den hair
G D G
With a blythe glance in her eye | 𝄎 |
G Em C D
2. For who be-yond the gay green-wood,
G Em C D
Was wait-ing her with joy | |
G D Em C
Oh who but gal-lant Re-nar-dine
G D G
On the moun-tains of Po-me-roy. | 𝄎 |
G D Em C
3. Full of-ten in the daw-ning hour
G Em C D
Full oft' in twi-light brown | |
G D Em C
He met the maid in the wood-land bo-wer
G D G
Where the stream comes foam-ing down | 𝄎 |
G D Em Am D
4. For they were faith-ful in a love
G Em Am D
No wars could e'er des-troy | |
G D Em C
No ty-rant's law touched Re-nar-dine,
G D G
On the moun-tains of Po-me-roy | 𝄎 |
G D Em C
5. Dear love she said I am so a-fraid
G Em Am D
For the foe-man's force and you | |
G D Em C
They've tracked you in the low-land's plain
G D G
And all the val-ley through | 𝄎 |
G Em Am D
6. My kins-men frown when you are named
G Em Am D
Your life they would des-troy | |
G D Em C
Be-ware they say of Re-nar-dine
G D G
On the moun-tains of Po-me-roy | 𝄎 |
G D Em C
7. Fear not fear not sweet-heart he cried
G Em Am D
Fear not the foe for me | |
G D Em C
No chain shall fall, what-e'er be-tide
G D G
On the arms which will be free! | 𝄎 |
G Em Am D
8. Oh leave your cruel kin and come
G Em C D
When the lark is in the sky. | |
G D Em C
And it's with my gun I will guard you well
G D G
On the moun-tains of Po-me-roy | 𝄎 |
G D Em C
9. When the morn had come, she rose and fled
G Em Am D
From her cruel kin and her home | |
G D Em C
And bright the wood and ro-sy red
G D G
And the tum-bling tor-rent's foam | 𝄎 |
G Em C D
10. But the mist came down and the tem-pest roared,
G Em Am D
And all a-round des - troy - ed
G D Em C
And a pale drowned bride met Re-nar-dine
G D G
On the moun-tains of Po-me-roy | 𝄎 |
G D Em C
** An out-lawed man in a land for-lorn
G Em C D
He scorned to turn and fly | |
G D Em C
But he kept the cause of free-dom safe
G D G
U-pon the moun-tain high | 𝄎 |
G Em Am D G Em Am D
| | | | | | | | |
G D Em C G D G
| | | | | | | |...
