Subject: Chord Req: The rose and the lindsey

Hey muddies

I'm trying to figure out the chords to this song which, as fa as I can figure out is also known as: The cruel Mother, Down by the greenwood side, The minister of new york's daughter and probably countless other names just to confuse us lowly folk singers. The version I know however is called 'The rose and the Lindsey o' by the Old Blind Dogs.
Thanks for any help

Gillies

I know this song, and I thought I could help. However, there are five versions in the Digital Tradition, three with MIDI's to listen to. None of the MIDI's are the same. And none are the tune I know.

What to do, what to do?
