F Gm C7 F
I fell asleep down by the stream
Gm Gm7 C F
And there I had the strangest dream
Bb F A Dm
And down by Brennan's Glenn there grows
Gm C7sus4 F
A briar and a rose
Dm C
There's a tree in the forest
Bb F
But I don't know where
Bb F Gm C
I built a nest out of your hair
F Gm7 C F Bb
And climbing up into the air
F C7 F
A briar and a rose
G Am D7 G
I don't know how long it has been
Am Am7 D7 G
But I was born in Brennan's Glenn
C G B Em
And near the end of spring there grows
Am7 Dsus4 G
A briar and a rose
Em D C G
I picked the rose one early morn
C G Am D7
I pricked my finger on a thorn
G Am7 D7
It had grown so high
G C
It's winding wove
G D7 G
the briar around the rose
Am D7 G
I tried to tear them both apart
Am Am7 G
I felt a bullet in my heart
C G B Em
And all dressed up in springs and clothes
Am7 Dsus4 G
The briar and the rose
Em D C G
And when I'm buried in my grave
C G Am7 D7
Tell me so I will know
G Am7 D
Your tears will fall
G C
To make love grow
G D7sus4 D7 G
The briar and the rose
