verse 1 

G 
Wonderful things of folks are said 
D7                    G 
When they have passed away 
                                     
Roses adorn the narrow bed 
D7                G 
Over the sleeping clay 


C                 G 
Give me the roses while I live 
                   D7 
Trying to cheer me on 
G 
Useless are flowers that you give 
D7                G 
After the soul is gone 


verse 2 
Praises are heard not by the dead 
D7                G 
Roses they cannot speak 

Let us not wait till souls have fled 
D7                  G 
Generous friends to be 

Chorus 
riff on Chorus in country style 

verse 3 

Faults are forgiven when folks lie 
D7               G 
Cold in a narrow bed 

Let us forgive them ere they die 
D7                      G 
Now should the words be said 


Chorus
