[INTRO D]
[VERSE 1]
[D]In Scarlet town [A] where I was [D]born
There was a [A]fair maid [D]dwellin'
And every youth cry well away
And her name was [A]Barba[A7]ra [D]Allen
Verse 2
Was in the merry month of May
[A]When green buds they [A7]were [D]swelling
Sir William on his deathbed lay
For the love of [A]Barb[A7]ara [D]Allen
[VERSE 3]
He sent a servant to the town
To the place where [A]she was d[D]wellin'
Cried master bids you to his side
If your name be [A]Barba[A7]ra A[D]llen
[VERSE 4]
Well Slowly slowly she got up
And [D7]slowly [A]she went [D]nigh him
And when she pulled the curtain back
Said Young man [A]I think y[A7]ou're [D]dying [B7]
[VERSE 5]
Oh yes I'm [E]sick I'm [A]very [E]sick
And I will [B7]be no [E]better
Until I've had the love of one
The l[E7]ove of [B7]Brarbra [E]Allen
Verse 6
Now Father Father go dig my grave
And make it [B7]deep and [E]narrow
Sweet William died for me today
I'll die for [B7]him [E]tomorrow [C#]
[VERSE 7]
Well they buried [F#]her in the [C#]old court[F#]yard
Sir William's [C#]grave was nigh [F#]her
And from his heart there grew a rose
And from her [C#]heart there grew a [F#]briar
Verse 8
They grew and grew up the [C#]courtyard w[F#]all
Till they could [C#]grow [C#7]no [F#]higher
They grew as one no more two hearts
Red red [C#]rose [C#7]and the [F#]briar
The red red [C#]rose and [F#]Barbra [D#m7]Allen [C#] [F#]
