[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]One heart too
many I have [G]broken
Love dreams that faded [C]away.
Too many teardrops have [G]fallen,
[D]Too many vows cast [G]aside.
Soft wedding bells should be [C]ringing,
For [G]us in the chapel to[C]night,
But this [F]morning they tolled,
And her [C]bright band of [A]gold
Was re[D]turned with this
message to[G]night

[Verse 2]
Your [C]sweetheart has [G]left today,
Heart broken, God took her [C]away.
That silk [F]gown of white for
her [C]wedding to[A]night,
She [D]wore as they laid her [G]away.
Tho' she [C]died for a [G]love all in vain,
Her last words were calling [C]your name;
As I walked to her grave where
the [F]blue bonnets wave,
I [C]cried but my [G]tears were too [C]late.

[Verse 3]
[C]
Tonight, sweetheart,
[F]as I kneel here alone beside you
[C]And my tears stain the
flowers on [G]your grave,
In [C]deep regret I think of the
[F]heart that I have wounded
[C]Of the sorrow, and grief,
and [G]the life I could [C]have saved.
Yes, tonight darling,
[F]you were to be my loving bride
[C]But all that I have left now[G] as I bow to pray,
Is your [C]ring, a picture,
the sad [F]message that they sent me,
And [C]this rose that I am tak[G]ing
from [C]your[G][C]
[F]grave.
