[Banjo intro]
G C G D
G C G D G
[Verse]
G C G
What will the birds do, mother, in the spring
G D
Will they gather the crumbs 'round our door
G C
Will they fly from the nest in the top of the tree
G D G
And ask why Joe wanders out no more
G C G
What will kitten do, mother, all alone
G D
Will he stray from his frolic for a day
G C
Will he lie on the rug beside my bed
G D G
Like he did before I went away
[Fiddle break]
G C G D
G C G D G
[Verse]
G C G
And what will Thomas, the old gardener do
G D
When you ask him for flowers for me
G C
Will he give you a rose he has tended with care
G D G
The fairest of that lot 'round the tree
G C G
I saw the tears coming to his honest eyes
G D
He said it was the wind that brought them there
G C
As he gazed on my cheeks growing paler each day
G D G
His hand trembled over my hair
[Guitar break]
G C G D
G C G D G
[Verse]
