RED IS THE ROSE

Verse:
C           Em        Dm               F
Come over the hills, my bonnie Irish lass
     C        Cmaj7         F      Em
Come over the hills to your darling
F           Em             Dm               F
You choose the rose love, and I'll make the vow
    C           F      C    G7   C
And I'll be your true love forever

Chorus:
C          Em          Dm               F
Red is the rose that in yonder garden grows
C           Cmaj7      F    Em
Fair is the lily of the valley
F           Em             Dm               F
Clear is the water that flows from the Boyne
 C             F   C       G7 C
But my love is fairer than any

Verse:
C           Em              Dm           F
'Twas down by Killarney's green woods we strayed
C                 Cmaj7          F     Em
The moon and the stars they were shining
F           Em             Dm               F
The moon shone its rays on her locks of golden hair
    C              F    C   G7   C
She swore she'd be my love forever

Chorus:
C          Em          Dm               F
Red is the rose that in yonder garden grows
C           Cmaj7      F    Em
Fair is the lily of the valley
F           Em             Dm               F
Clear is the water that flows from the Boyne
 C             F   C       G7 C
But my love is fairer than any

Verse:
C          Em          Dm               F
It's not for the parting that my sister pains
C           Cmaj7      F    Em
 It's not for the grief of my mother
F           Em             Dm               F
'Tis all for the loss of my bonnie Irish lass
C             F   C       G7 C
That my heart is breaking forever

Chorus:
C          Em          Dm               F
Red is the rose that in yonder garden grows
C           Cmaj7      F    Em
Fair is the lily of the valley
F           Em             Dm               F
Clear is the water that flows from the Boyne
 C             F   C       G7 C
