     C                                               G7 
I Sit In My Prison Cell So Dreary
                                             C          G7 
With A Sad And Aching Heart
 C                                     G7 
Thinking Only Of My Darlin'
                                                   C 
From Whom Forever I Must Part
     C                                         G7 
A Rose She Sent Me As A Token
                                                           C          G7 
Said She Try And Forget Your Gloom
               C                                                 G7 
And To Tell Me That Her Heart Is Broken

         C                                                 G7 
The Rose She Took It From The Garden
                                                                             C          G7 
Where Together We Once Walked Side By Side
               C                                           G7 
And To Tell Me That I Hold No Pardon
                                                       C 
That She Could Never Be My Bride

         C                                                   G7 
The Judge Would Not Believe My Story
                                                     C          G7 
The Jury Said I'd Have To Pay
         C                                             G7 
But To The Rose In All It's Glory
                                                           C 
Not Guilty Is All That I Can Say
       C                                       G7 
To-morrow As The Day Is Dawning
                                                   C          G7 
I'll Meet My Maker In Re-pose
         C                                               G7 
But When They Find Me In The Morning
                                                             C     F     C        G7-  C- 
At My Heart They'll Find This Rose
