A Rose For Emily

A                E
Though summer is here at last
Gdim       B  F#
The sky is overcast
Edim       B  D#        C#m7  C#m7  F# F#7
And no one brings a rose for Emily
 
A                E
She watches her flowers grow
Gdim         B  F#
While lovers come and go
Edim            B  D#           C#m7
To give each other roses from her tree
F#7              B
But not a rose for Emily
 
 
 
C          G                   D#dim            E
Emily,     can't you see there's nothing you can do
(Emily...        see...                      how the sun is...)
 
Adim           E  G#           B7        E  E  D
There's loving everywhere but none for you
(...shining in the garden)
 
Verse 2:
 
Her roses are faded now
She keeps her pride somehow
That's all she has protecting her from pain
 
And as the years go by
She will grow old and die
The roses in her garden fade away
B  D#             C#m7
Not one left for her grave
F#7             B
Not a rose for Emily
