My Rose Of Old Kentucky (A)

(Bill Monroe)



               I(A)             IV(D)
She blooms for me near a little village
     I(A)         V(E7)
In a cabin on the hill
            I(A)             IV(D)
We made our vow we love each other
      I(A)    V(E7)  I(A)
And I hope we always will

    (Chorus)
             IV(D)          I(A)
    She's my rose of old Kentucky
                                        V(E7)
    I watched her bloom as the years go by
                       I(A)      IV(D)
    And to me there'll never be another
                  I(A) V(E7)      I(A)
    I'll love her till  the day I die

In dreams I see my darling
In a gingham dress she looks so sweet
Oh, I long for old Kentucky
And my darling more than ever

I know you often wonder
So I tell you the reason why
She's my rose of old Kentucky
and I know she will l never lie
