The Rose Of Allendale Lyrics And Chords In D Major
The[D] morning was fair,the[G] sky's were[D] clear
No breath came o;re the[A] sea
When[D] Mare left her[G] highland[D] home
And[G] wandered[A] forth with[D] me
Though[A] flowere decked the[D] mountain side
And[G] fragrance[D] filled the[A] vale
By[D] far the sweetest[G] flower[D] there
Was the[G] rose of[A] Allen[D]dale
[Chorus]
Was[D] the rose of Allen[G]dale,was the[Bm] rose of Allen[A]dale
By[G] far the sweetest[D] flower there,was the[G] rose of [A7]Allen[D]dale
[2]
Where'er I wandered east or west,
Tho'faith began to lour
A solace still she was to me
In sorrow's lonely hour
When tempest lashed our lonely barque
And rent her shivering sail
One maiden form withstood the storm
'Twas the rose of Allendale
[3]
And when my fever'd lips were parched
On Afrie's burning sands
She whispered hopes of happiness
And tales of distant lands
My life has been a wilderness
Unbiest by fortune's gale
Had faith not linked my lot to hers
The rose of Allendale
The[D] morning was fair,the[G] sky's were[D] clear
No breath came o;re the[A] sea
When[D] Mare left her[G] highland[D] home
And[G] wandered[A] forth with[D] me
Though[A] flowere decked the[D] mountain side
And[G] fragrance[D] filled the[A] vale
By[D] far the sweetest[G] flower[D] there
Was the[G] rose of[A] Allen[D]dale
[Chorus]
Was[D] the rose of Allen[G]dale,was the[Bm] rose of Allen[A]dale
By[G] far the sweetest[D] flower there,was the[G] rose of [A7]Allen[D]dale
[2]
Where'er I wandered east or west,
Tho'faith began to lour
A solace still she was to me
In sorrow's lonely hour
When tempest lashed our lonely barque
And rent her shivering sail
One maiden form withstood the storm
'Twas the rose of Allendale
[3]
And when my fever'd lips were parched
On Afrie's burning sands
She whispered hopes of happiness
And tales of distant lands
My life has been a wilderness
Unbiest by fortune's gale
Had faith not linked my lot to hers
The rose of Allendale
