The Carter Family – Charlie Brooks (Guitar)

A
Dear Nellie since I left the city

     D                     A
I’ve found I’ve changed my mind

A
I hope you wont think me untruthful

             E       A
Or do me the least unkind

A
I think we’re both mistaken

  D                      A
I know you’ll never suit me

A
I owe my heart to another

               E             A
Of course kind friends will agree

A
Please send me my ring and pictures

  D                 A
Also my letters and books

A
My clothes with many kind wishes

             E             A
Respectfully yours Charlie Brooks

A
I heard all about it dear Charlie

  D                      A
I knew it would end this way

A
I hope you will always live happy

                        E         A
With your loving little wife Miss Gray

A
Here is your ring dear Charlie

      D                A
Don’t give it to her I pray

A
Unless you tell her twas once mine

              E      A
I wore it one year today
