[Intro]
            A                          E
Aw you have got 'em all hangin' around like the fringes on your gown
                   B7                                   E
You're pickin' 'em up and a-layin' 'em low my old faded rose
E
Baroom (repeated a few times as you strum E)
 
[Verse]
E                                              B7            E
Was it me that said you're a-gettin' old and a-losin' your appeal
E                                               B7             E
Was it me that said you're a-growin' cold and I wanted another deal
       A                                 E
Well I see that you're not wilted but you never did let it show
    E                       E                B7           E
Why didn't I know about the fiery glow in my old faded rose
 
[Chorus]
B7                          A              E
My old faded rose with your pedals hangin' down
         B7                   E
I didn't know I'd miss you so my old faded rose
   A                                   E
Aw look at 'em hangin' around like the fringes on your gown
                   B7                                   E
You're pickin' 'em up and a-layin' 'em low my old faded rose
E
Baroom

I didn't mean that the grass was green while your leaves is turnin' brown
G                                       D                 G
Now don't take me so seriously when I tell you don't hang around
          C                              G
But now I see you don't need prunin' and who do you suppose
   G                G                       D           G
Is back in line for one more time after his old faded rose
 
[Chorus]
D                           A              G
My old faded rose with your pedals hangin' down
         D                    G
I didn't know I'd miss you so my old faded rose
   C                                   G
Aw look at 'em hangin' around like the fringes on your gown
                   D                                    G
You're pickin' 'em up and a-layin' 'em low my old faded rose
 
G
Baroom
              Way down the mountain I chased a moonbeam
On the beach I built sand castles too
My moonbeams faded my castles tumbled
All of this was meaningless 'cause happiness is you

No more chasing moonbeams or catching falling stars
I know now my pot of gold is anywhere you are
My heart won't miss you my heart goes with you
Loneliness is emptiness but happiness is you

I tried to doubt you and live without you
Tried to deny but I love you like a do
But I realize now and I'll admit it
You'll always be a part of me 'cause happiness is you
No more chasing moonbeams
