Me And The Wildwood Rose

Verse: 1 
C 
In my Grandma's house her children would sing 

Guitars a twangin' and their laughter would ring 
         A                  C      G 
I was little but I was the biggest kid 
          Am                       C 
I wanted to do what the grown-ups did 

C 
In a big shiny car we'd head down the road 

To sing for the miners who brought out the coal 
Am                          F          C 
Many a time I slept on the floorboard cold 
     Am 
On a quilt with my little sister 
             C 
The Wildwood Rose 


[Refrão]
 
       F 
And if I could change a thing in this world 
      C 
I'd go back to the days 

When Grandma and her girls 
G 
Were singing sweet and low 
                        C 
For me and the Wildwood Rose 

Verse: 2 
C 
We'd be way down the road by the break of dawn 
C 
Biscuits and gravy and a truck stop song 
Am                     G 
In a world all my own I saw what I saw 
                      Am               F        G   C 
And in the rear view mirror I'd get a wink from my Grandma 


[Refrão]

       F 
And if I could change a thing in this world 
      C 
I'd go back to the days 

When Grandma and her girls 
G 
Were singing sweet and low 
                        C 
For me and the Wildwood Rose

Verse: 3 
C 
Oh I'll always remember the day that she died 

My daddy he called me and he started to cry 
Am                                   G 
I rode on an airplane with all of my pain 
Am 
My tears would not stop 
C 
We stood in a circle and sang
