Dead Horses - When The Roses Bloom Again Acoustic Chords

[Intro]
C Am Em Am

[Verse 1]
Am
They were strolling in the gloaming
         Dm
When the roses were in bloom
F                            Am        C   C Em
A soldier and his sweetheart brave and true
          Am
And their hearts were filled with sorrow
          Dm
For their thoughts were of tomorrow
    F                      Em          C
She pinned a rose upon his coat of blue
       F
Do not ask me love to linger
         Dm
When you know not what to say
    C                                      Am Em Am
For duty calls your sweetheart's name again
         F
And your heart need not be sighing
Dm
If I be among the dying
        C                 F            C   Em C
I'll be with you when the roses bloom again
         Am
When the roses bloom again
Dm
Beside the river
        F                              C      C Em
And the mockingbird has sung his sweet refrain
       Am
In the days of auld lang syne
        Dm
I'll be with you sweetheart mine
        F                       Am     C
I'll be with you when the roses bloom again

[Instrumental]
C F Dm C Em F C Em C Em

[Verse 2]
         Am                  Em
With the rattle of the battle
       Dm
Came a whisper soft and low
  F                             C    C Em
A soldier who had fallen in the fray
     Am               Em
I am dying, I am dying
      Dm
And I know I have to go
               F
I just want to tell you
               C  C
Before I pass away
          F
There's a far and distant river
          Dm
Where the roses are in bloom
      C                                     Am Em Am
And a sweetheart who is waiting there for me
         F
And it's there I pray you take me
          Dm
I've been faithful, don't forsake me
        C                 F            C
I'll be with her when the roses bloom again

[Outro]
