Chorus:

G                   D7              GThere's a little rosewood casket

G                   D7         GResting on a marble stand

G                     C            GWith a packet of old love letters

D7                                 GWritten by my true love's hand

G                         D7       GGo and bring them to me, sister

G                    D7           GRead them o'er for me tonight

G                  C              G I have often tried by could not

D7                                GFor the tears that filled my eyes

D7                               GWhen I'm dead and in my casket

D7                      GWhen I gently fall asleep

G                  C             GFall asleep to wake in heaven

D7                        GDearest sister do not weep

D7            G        D7       GTake his letters and his locket

G                  D7               GPlace them gently on my heart

G                     C                   G But this golden ring that he gave me

D7                          GFrom my finger never part
