C F
How she could sing the Wildwood Flower
C G7
The orphan girl he would love so long
C F
In the end he knew she'd been his finest hour
C G7 C
And all he has left of her is a song
He first saw her standing by a cabin door
G7 C
Her song was ringing out in a voice so strong and sure
To the lonesome valley he'd bring her there to be his bride
G7 C
Where they would live and work together side by side
She was his sunshine she was his moon and morning star
G7 C
His words would ring true on the chords of her guitar
But he was driven and lost to her for days and days
G7 C
Till the lonesome valley finally drove her far away
Repeat #1
We all cling to as the years keep rolling on
G7 C
One single promise of a love that's past and gone
And that lonesome valley we all walk it by ourselves
G7 C
Where the Wildwood Flower is a story we will tell
F
How she could sing the Wildwood Flower
C G7 C
All we have left of her is a song
