Let No Man Steal Your Thyme

Dm

      Dm               C
Come, all you fair and tender girls
     F         C      Dm
That flourish in your prime
  F       C               Dm     Am
Beware, beware, keep your garden fair
    Dm     C          Dm  C
Let no man steal your thyme
    Dm     C     Am   Dm
Let no man steal your thyme

    Dm                 C
For when your thyme is past and gone
      F    C           Dm
He'll care no more for you
    F      C          Dm         Am
And in the place your time was waste
     Dm         C         Dm C
Will spread all o'er with rue...
     Dm         C    Am   Dm
Will spread all o'er with rue

  Dm         C
A woman is a branchy tree
    F       C        Dm
And man's a clinging vine
    F        C        Dm     Am
And from her branches carelessly
      Dm        C      Dm  C
He'll take what he can find..
      Dm        C  Am  Dm
He'll take what he can find

    Dm                C
The gardner’s son was standing by
      F          C       Dm
Three flowers he gave to me
    F         C             Dm     Am
The pink, the blue, and the violet too
        Dm       C    Dm C
And the red, red rosy tree
        Dm       C Am Dm
And the red, red rosy tree

    Dm            C
But I forsook the red rose bush
    F          C      Dm
And gained the willow tree
    F      C           Dm      Am
So all the world might plainly see
    Dm      C        Dm C
How my love slighted me
    Dm      C   Am   Dm
How my love slighted me

      Dm               C
Come, all you fair and tender girls
     F         C      Dm
That flourish in your prime
  F       C               Dm       Am
Beware, beware, keep your garden fair
    Dm     C          Dm  C
Let no man steal your thyme
    Dm     C     Am   Dm
Let no man steal your thyme
