[C]I met my darlin in the [F]springtime
When [C]all the flowers were in b[G]loom
And l[C]ike the flowers our love [F]blossomed
We [C]married [G]in the month of [C]June
Our l[F]ove was like a burning ember
It warmed us as a golden glow
[C]We had sunshine in December
And t[G]hrew our roses in the [C]snow[C] [F] [C] [G] [C]
[C]Now God had taken my [F]darlin
And [C]left me with a [G]memory
[C]A memory I will always [F]cherish
[C]Are these last [G]words he said to [C]me
Our [F]love was like a burning ember
It warmed us as a golden glow
[C]We had sunshine in December
And t[G]hrew our roses in the [C]snow
SOLO
[C]My darlin's buried on the [F]hillside
[C]Where all the wild spring flowers [G]grow
And [C]when winter snows start [F]falling
[C]On his [G]grave I'll place a [C]rose
Our l[F]ove was like a burning ember
It warmed us like a golden glow
[C]We had sunshine in December
And t[G]hrew our roses in the s[C]now[F] [C] [G] [C]
