Tom: G5
Verse 1:
      G5                D5
      Though summer is here at last
      F5       A5
      The sky is overcast
         D5             A5        B5  B5 E5
      And no one brings a rose for Emily
      G5                D5 
      She watches her flowers grow
      F5         A5
      While lovers come and go
         D5            A5           B5
      To give each other roses from her tree
          E5              A5
      But not a rose for Emily

Chorus:
      Bb5          F5                   C#5            D5
      Emily,     can't you see there's nothing you can do

          (Emily...        see...                      how the sun is...)
      G5                 D5           A5        D5  D5
            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
          A5             B5
      Not one left for her grave
      E5             A5
      Not a rose for Emily

[repeat chorus]

[repeat verse 2]

Coda:
