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
