Dolly Parton - Rosewood Casket Chords

Chorus:

G                   D7              G
There's a little rosewood casket

G                   D7         G
Resting on a marble stand

G                     C            G
With a packet of old love letters

D7                                 G
Written by my true love's hand

G                         D7       G
Go and bring them to me, sister

G                    D7           G
Read them o'er for me tonight

G                  C              G 
I have often tried by could not

D7                                G
For the tears that filled my eyes

D7                               G
When I'm dead and in my casket

D7                      G
When I gently fall asleep

G                  C             G
Fall asleep to wake in heaven

D7                        G
Dearest sister do not weep

D7            G        D7       G
Take his letters and his locket

G                  D7               G
Place them gently on my heart

G                     C                   G 
But this golden ring that he gave me

D7                          G
