Originally an old English riddle song from Cornwall, this version is a cover of The Furey Brothers arrangement.

Jennifer Gentle and Rosemary
Capo at 3rd fret, so, I am really playing and singing in the key of Eb (D#)

C                                         F            G7
Oh, Jennifer Gentle and Rosemary,
C                          F              G7
What is deeper than the sea?
F                         C                          G7
What is higher than the broad sky?
C                                           G7            C               
As the dew falls over the mulberry tree?

What has made my heart feel glad,
And turned my winters into springs,
When all the world is so very sad?
It's the joy that Jennifer Gentle brings.

The sun has darkened the ocean folds,
A lovely silver and pure white gold,
While wheeling gulls flock down to rest,
On the welcome folds of the ocean's crest.

Instrumental 

Love is deeper than the sea,
Jennifer Gentle and Rosemary.
And truth is higher than the broad sky,
As the dew falls over the mulberry tree.

Oh, Jennifer Gentle and Rosemary,
What is deeper than the sea?
And what is higher than the broad sky,
As the dew falls over the mulberry tree?
