CONVICT AND THE ROSE ***
( G ) Within my prison cell so ( D7 ) dreary
Alone I sit with weary ( G ) heart
I'm thinking of my lonely ( D7 ) darling
From her forever I must ( G ) part
a rose she sent me was a ( D7 ) token
She sent it just to light my ( G ) gloom
To tell me that her heart was ( D7 ) broken
To cheer me fore I meet my ( G ) doom
She wrote I took it from the ( D7 ) garden
Where once we wandered side by ( G ) side
But now you hold no hope of ( D7 ) pardon
And I can never be your ( G ) bride
Thatold judge would not believe my ( D7 ) story
Thejury said I have to ( G ) pay
Now to the rose and all its ( D7 ) glory
Notguilty is all that I can ( G ) say
Goodbye sweetheart for in the ( D7 ) morning
I'llmeet my Maker and ( G ) repose
And when I go at daylight ( D7 ) darling
Against my heart they'll find your ( G ) rose
