A
D
A
E
A
He took
all his old love letters
D
A
and he bound them all together
E
A
But I know he knew what every letter said
A picture and a gold band
D
A
he took from off his old hand
E
A
And then he drew a little sign that read
D
A
D
A
Here lies the heart of Amos Brown
And he dug a little hole
there in the ground.
A
E
A
of Amos Brown.
Pretty soon he planted flowers,
D
A
and I've seen him sit for hours
E
A
Just staring at that little patch of clay
How much he must have loved her,
D
A
how much he must have suffered
For I know he told the truth
E
A
each time he'd say
D
A
Here lies the heart of Amos Brown
And they laughed behind his back
all over town
D
A
Saying here lies the heart of
E
A
D
A
E
A
Amos Brown
The story was, a rounder
D
A
Had passed through town and found her
E
Em
And before anybody knew it,
The old man never found another,
D
A
and he died still loving my mother.
And it broke my heart to
E
A
hear my daddy say,
D
A
D
A
Here lies the heart of Amos Brown.
And I doubt a sadder story can be found
D
E
A
Saying here lies the heart of Amos Brown
