                         G7                  C  
Darlin' I received your last long letter
      D             D7                  D            G  
And enclosed I found a petal, from the rose
                        G7                        C  
That I picked and placed within your hair dear
          D              D7            D                     G  
When we strolled beneath the moonbeams long ago

                            G7                     C  
You say that you can understand today dear
D                    D7            D                    G  
Why in tears I told you, when you went away
                         G7                  C  
Now you're leavin' and I'll be so lonely
         D                         D7                G  
Like a faded petal from a beautiful bouquet

                                 G7                 C  
You tell me that tonight you're broken hearted
      D                        D7              D              G  
Your happiness in life sweetheart, you say is through
                          G7                     C  
And that you regret the day you left me
     D                         D7                  D                 G  
And broke my heart, to change, an old love for the new

                                    G7                C  
With aching heart in tears I write this letter
     D                      D7                D        G  
Old mem'ries I could never, never cast away
                        G7                  C  
I forgive you and you'll find me waitin'
         D                         D7                G        G7  
Like a faded petal from a beautiful bouquet
