The Carter Family - Amber Tresses lyrics

[Verse 1] Far away in sunny mountains Where the merry sunbeams play There I wander through the clover Singing to a village maid [Chorus] She was dearer than the dearest Ever loving kind and true And she wore beneath her bonnet Amber tresses tied with blue [Verse 2] Fate decreed that we be parted Ere the leaves of autumn fell When two hearts are separated That had loved each other well She was all I had to cherish Ever loving kind and true Now I see in every vision Amber tresses tied with blue [Chorus]
