     Em            Bm 
They came down from the mountain

Em               Bm 
And you, my sweet flower 
Em                            Bm 
And how you grew more sweet by the hour 
Em    
And loathe was I

Loathe was I to lose you

My tender rose

My limber rose

My slender loping daughter

My tender rose

But my daughterâ??s long, long gone
