The Rose and the Briar (Tommy Fleming, Da Dannan)
INTRO; (open chords) Dm----- CāF---- Bb--- Dm--- C---3 F-----
C F C F
Beware the dream that turns to greed
C F
When the flower rejects the seed
Dm C F
When the lover does not yearn
Dm C F
For the swallow's swift return
C F C F
Too late the lesson has been learned
C F
The flowers withered, the letters burned
Dm C F
The fond embrace is just a breeze
Dm C F
Like the touch of falling leaves
C Bb F C F
So take this broken heart of mine
C F
Throw it out like sour wine
Bb C F
Let it burn upon the fire
F Dm C F
For you're the rose and I'm the briar
C F C F
And now the years are rolling on
C F
And I think of what has gone
F Dm C F
For what I gained I do not care
Dm C F
And what I lost, I hold most dear
C F C F
So take this broken heart of mine
C F
Throw it out like sour wine
Dm C F
Let it burn upon the fire
F Dm C F
For you're the rose and I'm the briar
F Bb F Bb
So take this broken heart of mine
F Bb
Throw it out like sour wine
Gm F Bb
Let it burn upon the fire
Gm F Bb
For you're the rose and I'm the briar
Gm F Bb
Let it burn upon the fire
Gm F Bb
For you're the rose and I'm the briar
