I met my darling in the springtime
C
G7
When all the flowers were in bloom
C
F
And like the flowers our love blossomed
C
G7
C
We married in the month of June
F
Our love was like a burning ember
C
We had sunshine in December
G7
C
And threw our roses in the snow
F
Now God had taken my darling
C
G7
And left me with a memory
C
F
A memory I will always cherish
C
G7
C
Are these last words he said to me
F
Our love was like a burning ember
C
We had sunshine in December
G7
C
And threw our roses in the snow
C
F
My darling’s buried on the hillside
C
G7
Where all the wild spring flowers grow
C
F
And when winter snows start falling
C
G7
C
On his grave I’ll place a rose
F
Our love was like a burning ember
C
We had sunshine in December
G7
C
And threw our roses in the snow
C
F
G7
