Gold Watch and Chain
Carter Family

(D)     G                          D
Oh I'll pawn you my gold watch and chain, love
         A                        D
And I'll pawn you my gold wedding ring
       G                         D
I will pawn you this heart in my bosom
     A                         D
Only say that you'll love me a-gain

         G                         D
Darling, how could I stay here without you
       A                       D
I have nothing to ease my poor heart
         G                               D
This old world would seem sad, love, without you
        A                      D
Tell me now that we never will part

        G                          D
Oh I'll pawn you my gold watch and chain, love
         A                        D
And I'll pawn you my gold wedding ring
       G                         D
I will pawn you this heart in my bosom
     A                         D
Only say that you'll love me a-gain

          G                      D
Take back all the gifts you have given
          A                       D
A diamond ring and a lock of your hair
      G                       D  
And a card with your picture upon it
       A                         D
It's a face that is false but is fair

        G                          D
Oh I'll pawn you my gold watch and chain, love
         A                        D
And I'll pawn you my gold wedding ring
       G                         D
I will pawn you this heart in my bosom
     A                         D
Only say that you'll love me a-gain

        G                             D
Oh, the white rose that blooms in the garden
        A                         D    
(Oh) it grows with the love of my heart
         G                         D     
It broke through on the day that I met you
        A                      D                        
It will die on the day that we part

        G                          D
Oh I'll pawn you my gold watch and chain, love
         A                        D
And I'll pawn you my gold wedding ring
       G                         D
I will pawn you this heart in my bosom
     A                         D
Only say that you'll love me a-gain
