Capo 5th.
[Verse 1]
Em
They were strolling in the gloaming
Am
Where the roses were in bloom
C/G G
A soldier and his sweetheart brave and true
Em
And their hearts were filled with sorrow
Am
For their thoughts were of tomorrow
C/G G
As she pinned a rose upon his coat of blue
[Chorus]
C/G
Do not ask me love to linger
Am
When you know not what to say
G Em
For duty calls your sweetheart's name again
C/G
And your heart need not be sighing
Am
If I be among the dying
G C G
I'll be with you when the roses bloom again
[Verse 2]
Em
When the roses bloom again
Am
Beside the river
C/G G
And the mockingbird has sung his sweet refrain
Em
In the days of Old Lang Syne
Am
I'll be with you sweetheart mine
C/G G
I'll be with you when the roses bloom again
[Verse 3]
Em
Mid the rattle of the battle
Am
Came a whisper soft and low
C/G G
A soldier who had fallen in the fray
Em
I am dying, I am dying
Am
And I know I'll have to go
C/G G
But I want to tell you before I pass away
[Chorus]
C/G
There's a far and distant river
Am
Where the roses are in bloom
G Em
A sweetheart who is waiting there for me
C/G
And it's there I pray you take me
Am
I've been faithful, don't forsake me
G C G
I'll be with her when the roses bloom again
