Aw you have got 'em all hangin' around like the fringes on your gown
E                  B7                                   E
You're pickin' 'em up and a-layin' 'em low my old faded rose

E                                              B7            E
Was it me that said you're a-gettin' old and a-losin' your appeal
E                                               B7             E
Was it me that said you're a-growin' cold and I wanted another deal
E      A                                 E
Well I see that you're not wilted but you never did let it show
    E/                      E/            B7           E
Why didn't I know about the fiery glow in my old faded rose

CHORUS:
B7                          A              E
My old faded rose with your pedals hangin' down
E        B7                   E/
I didn't know I'd miss you so my old faded rose
   A                                   E
Aw look at 'em hangin' around like the fringes on your gown
E                  B7                                   E
You're pickin' 'em up and a-layin' 'em low my old faded rose

VERSE:

I didn't mean that the grass was green while your leaves is turnin' brown
Now don't take me so seriously when I tell you don't to hang around

Is back in line for one more time after his old faded rose
