  			C I have traveled F this world C over 
I have G7 rambled all my C days 
When my journey's F have all C ended 
Place some G7 flowers on my C grave. C7 
 
CHORUS 
Local F Flowers, just some C Daisies 
Wildwood G7 flowers from the C hill C7 
Where I will F spend my eternal C hours 
Lay me G7 down with Local C Flowers. 
 
Please don't buy those Red Carnations 
I don't need the Lilies fair 
Just go walkin' on the mountain 
Gather while it's blooming there. 
 
Rosemary means that you'll remember 
Clover sweet as the love we shared 
Mrytle says that you will miss me 
Ramblin' Roses say you care. 
 
CHORUS 
 
Let the birds sing from the tree tops 
Let the grass grow where it may 
No arrangement, no bright ribbons 
Just a simple, wild bouquet. 
 
CHORUS
