Recorded by Emmylou Harris and Ricky Skaggs     Written by A.P. Carter

C                                  G
Oh I'll pawn you my gold watch and chain love
         D7                       G
And I'll pawn you my gold wedding ring
       C                         G
I will pawn you this heart in my bosom
     D7                   G
Only say that you love me again

        C                   G
Darling how can I stay here without you
       D7                       G
I have nothing to cheer my poor heart
         C                         G
This old world would seem sad love without you
        D7                     G
Tell me now that we never will part

Repeat #1

     C                           G
Take back all the gifts you have given
          D7                      G
A diamond ring and a lock of your hair
      C                      G
And a card with your picture upon it
       D7                        G
It's a face that is false but is fair

Repeat #1

       C                             G
Oh the white rose that blooms in the garden
   D7                        G
It grows with the love of my heart
         C                         G
It broke through on the day that I met you
        D7                     G
It will die on the day that we part

Repeat #1

     D7                   G
Only say that you love me again
