in memory of you, dear old pal
(Words and Music by C. E. Snow â Hank, The Singing Ranger)G7 C E C C G7 G7 C Gdim G7Everything has gone wrong and the nights are so long since you left us down here all alone,C E7 F C G7 C F Ceveryday seems a year and the whole world is drear, it seems now I just canât go on.G7 F C D7 C7Standing close by my side is our own little pride, he misses your lullaby tune,C E7 F C G7 CAnd his big dark blue eyes swell with tears as he cries âWonât Mummy come back to us soon?âI planted sweet lilies for you dear of one on your grave âneath the pines in the dawn and our baby each day kneeled with me as I prayed in memâry of you dear old pal.G7 C E C C G7 G7 C Gdim G7The angels will love you and keep you I know, âcause they needed some one just like youC E7 F C G7 C F Cto brighten the heaven around Godâs great throne, and add a new star to the blue.G7 F C D7 C7Iâll watch oâer the baby and tend him with care and each night by his bedside Iâll kneelC E7 F C G7 CAnd if tears do not stop me Iâll sing him to sleep in memâry of you dear old pal.
All your big stakes and treasures I placed them away to me they mean more than a world and the babyâs first curl to your picture Iâve tend in memâry of you dear old pal.
