[VERSE]
[C]She would dance like a firefly
Like she's [F]floating through the [C]air
[C]Shining star in an endless sky
She could [F]sparkle any[C]where

[VERSE]
The [G]young men [C]came from [F]far and near
To offer [G]flowers, [C]each in his [F]turn
And they would [G]promise their un[C]dying de[F]votion
For her [G]love in re[C]turn

[VERSE]
[C]And the first who stood before her
Was a [F]builder by his [C]trade
[C]His back was strong, his hands were gentle
He [F]showed her the things he [C]made

[VERSE]
I will [G]build you a [C]house in the [F]valley
Where the [G]stream flows [C]swiftly [F]by
And on the [G]banks of the [C]sweet prim[F]roses
You and [G]I will [C]lie

[VERSE]
[C]And the next to make his declaration
Was a [F]young man of high re[C]nown
[C]Standing keen in expectation
He [F]would not be un[C]done

[VERSE]
I will [G]give you [C]gold and [F]riches
A diamond [G]ring for [C]your fair [F]hand
Every [G]wish you [C]crave will be [F]granted
And I will [G]be at your com[C]mand

[INSTRUMENTAL]
[C]

[VERSE]
[C]A wandering minstrel on his travels
Chanced to [F]pass along her [C]way
[C]He sang her songs of sweet affection
And with his [F]charms he held her [C]sway

[VERSE]
I [G]have no [C]house to [F]offer you
Nor [G]money [C]have I [F]none
But [G]you will [C]be my [F]poetry
And [G]I will be your [C]song

[VERSE]
[C]And so it came they took a winding road
And cast their [F]cares upon the [C]wind
[C]To see the days and sing the seasons
And never [F]asking what lay be[C]yond

[VERSE]
Her [G]jewels were the [C]words he [F]sang for her
Her [G]house a [C]broad oak [F]tree
Her [G]joy was [C]but a [F]simple dream
That [G]flowers when it's [C]free

[INSTRUMENTAL]

And she's [F]floating through the [C]air
[C]A shining star in an endless sky
She can [F]sparkle any[C]where

Her [G]jewels are the [C]words he [F]sings for her
Her [G]house a [C]broad oak [F]tree
Her [G]joy is [C]but a [F]simple dream
That [G]flowers now it's [C]free
