When the Roses Bloom Again

[Intro] Am  Am/G

Am
They were strolling in the gloaming
Dm
Where the roses were in bloom
F                                 
A soldier and his sweetheart brave
     C
 and true
Am
And their hearts were filled with 
sorrow
Dm
For their thoughts were of tomorrow
F                                 
As she pinned a rose upon his coat
    C
 of blue

F
Do not ask me love to linger
Dm
When you know not what to say
C                              
For duty calls your sweetheart's 
       Am
name again
F
And your heart need not be sighing
Dm
If I be among the dying

C                         F  
I'll be with you when the roses 
         C/G
bloom again

Am
When the roses bloom again
Dm
Beside the river
F                              
And the mockingbird has sung his 
        C
sweet refrain

Am
In the days of auld lang syne
Dm
I'll be with you sweetheart mine
F                             
I'll be with you when the roses 
        C
bloom again

( F  Dm  C/G  Am  Am/G  )
( F  Dm  C/G )

Am
Mid the rattle of the battle
Dm
Came a whisper soft and low
F                               C
A soldier who had fallen in the fray
Am
I am dying, I am dying
Dm
And I know I'll have to go
F
But I want to tell you
              C
Before I pass away

F
There's a far and distant river
Dm
Where the roses are in bloom
C                                 
A sweetheart who is waiting there 
    Am
for me
F
And it's there I pray you take me
Dm
I've been faithful, don't forsake me
C                         F  
I'll be with her when the roses 
         C/G
bloom again
