Capo: 3 Tuning: E A D G B E

Among The Oak And Ash - Rose And Briar CAPO: 3rd Fret [Verse 1]

All in the ^Gmerry month of May When the ^Fgreen buds are ^Gswelling Dear love, ^FJim, on his ^Gdeathbed ^Clay For the ^Glove of ^FBarb'rie ^GAllen

[Verse 2] He sent his servant into town

To the ^Fplace where she was ^Gdwelling "My master's ^Fsick, he ^Gsends for ^Cyou If your ^Gname is ^FBarb'rie ^GAllen"

[Verse 3] Slow-la, slow-la, got she up

Slow-la, ^Fslow-la, went she ^Gnigh him And all she ^Fsaid as she ^Gkissed his ^Clips “Oh ^GJim, I'm a^Ffraid you’re ^Gdying” ^C

[Chorus]

"Mother, mother, go make my ^Gbed ^C And lay me down, and lay me down in ^Gsorrow" ^F "You have to choose", the preacher said ^G

"I got the news, sweet Jim is dead

And I'll ^Fjoin him to^Gmorrow"

[Verse 4] "Oh yes, oh yes, I'm low, indeed

And as for ^Fdeath, there is no ^Gtelling When it comes for ^Fme, I'll ^Gtake my ^Cleave But I'll ^Gmiss you, ^FBarb'rie ^GAllen"

[Verse 5] He turned his pale face to the wall

She crossed the ^Ffield, the bell was ^Gknelling It tolled the ^Floss of ^Gyoung, bold ^CJim It broke the ^Gheart of ^FBarb'rie ^GAllen

[Verse 6] And she was buried in the old churchyard

And he was ^Fburied be^Gside her From his g^Frave grew a ^Gred, red ^Crose And from ^Ghers ^Fgrew a ^Gbriar ^C

[Chorus]

"Mother, mother, go make my ^Gbed ^C And lay me down, and lay me down in ^Gsorrow" ^F "You have to choose", the preacher said ^G

"I got the news, sweet Jim is dead

And I'll ^Fjoin him to^Gmorrow" I'll ^Fjoin him to^Gmorrow" ^FJoin him to^Gmorrow"
