Billy Bragg & Wilco - Where The Roses Are In Bloom
Verse 1
They were Bmstrolling in the gloaming
Where the Emroses were in bloom
A Gsoldier and his sweetheart lady Dtrue
And their Bmhearts were filled with sorrow
And their Emthoughts were of tomorrow
As she Gpinned a rose upon his coat of Dblue
Chorus 1
Do not Gask me love to linger
When you Emknow not what to say
For Dduty calls your sweetheart's name Bmagain
And your Gheart need not be sighing
If EmI be among the dying
I'll be Dwith you when the Groses bloom Dagain
Verse 2
When the roses bloom again
Beside the river
And the mockingbird has sung his sweet refrain
In the days of auld lang syne
I'll be with you sweetheart mine
I'll be with you when the roses bloom again
Verse 3
Mid the rattle of the battle
Came a whisper soft and low
A soldier who had fallen in the fray
I am dying, I am dying
And I know I'll have to go
But I want to tell you
Before I pass away
Chorus 2
There's a far and distant river
Where the roses are in bloom
A sweetheart who is waiting there for me
And it's there I pray you take me
I've been faithful, don't forsake me
I'll be with her when the roses bloom again
