Am       G        Dm Em Am  
I'd a pluck a fair rose for my love 
       Am     Dm        G  E 
I'd a pluck a red rose blowin’ 
 C     Am      G          Dm          Am 
Love's in my heart, i'm tryin' so to prove 
 F                Dm Am  
What your heart's knowin' 

       Am       G    Dm  Em  Am 
I'd a pluck a finger on a thorn 
       Am      Dm   G   E 
I'd a pluck a finger bleedin' 
 C  Am     G       Dm          Am 
Red is my heart, wounded and forlorn 
 F             Dm  Am 
And your heart needin' 

       Am      G    Dm Em   Am 
I'd a hold a finger to my tongue 
       Am      Dm   G   E 
I'd a hold a finger waitin’ 
C   Am       G     Dm                C (or Am )                                                 
My heart is sore, until it joins in song 
 F              Dm Am  
With your heart matin’
