GIVE ME THE ROSES WHILE I LIVE
WRITER R.H. CORNELIUS
Banjo tuned E, Capo  3 , Key of: F
3/4 time

    F               C          F
Wonderful things of folks are said
                      C
When they have passed away
                       F
Roses adorn the narrow bed
          C       F
Over the sleeping clay

Chorus:
    F             C       F
Give me the roses while I live
                  C
Trying to cheer me on
                          F
Useless are flowers that you give
          C        F
After the soul is gone

Instrumental:

Praises are heard not by the dead
Roses they cannot see
Let us not wait until souls have fled
Generous friends to be

Chorus:
Give me the roses while I live
Trying to cheer me on
Useless are flowers that you give
After the soul is gone

Instrumental:


Folks are forgiven when they lie
Cold in their narrow bed
Let us forgive them 'ere they die
Now should the words be said


Chorus:
Give me the roses while I live
Trying to cheer me on
Useless are flowers that you give
After the soul is gone
After the soul is gone
