G                D
Though summer is here at last
Fdim       A / E
The sky is overcast
Ddim       A / C#        Bm7  Bm7 / E E7
And no one brings a rose for Emily

G                D
She watches her flowers grow
Fdim         A / E
While lovers come and go
Ddim            A / C#           Bm7
To give each other roses from her tree
E7              A
But not a rose for Emily

Chorus:

Bb          F                   C#dim            D
Emily,     can't you see there's nothing you can do
(Emily...        see...                      how the sun is...)

Gdim           D / F#           A7        D  D / C
There's loving everywhere but none for you
(...shining in the garden)

Verse 2:

Her roses are faded now
She keeps her pride somehow
That's all she has protecting her from pain

And as the years go by
She will grow old and die
The roses in her garden fade away
A / C#             Bm7
Not one left for her grave
E7             A
Not a rose for Emily

[repeat chorus]
