[Verse 1]
G D Fdim7 A/E
The summer is here at last, the sky is overcast,
Ddim7 A/C# Bm Bm/E E7
And no one brings a rose for Emi - ly,
G D Fdim7 A/E
She watches her flowers grow, while lovers come and go,
Ddim7 A/C# Bm E7/D A
To give each other roses from her tree, but not a rose for Emily
[Chorus]
Bb F C#dim7 D
Emily------, can't you see, there's nothing you can do?
(Emily, can't you see? See-------- how the sun is..)
Gdim7 D/F# Gdim7 D D/C G
There's loving everywhere, but none------- for you-----!
(...shi-----------------ning again, but none for you---------!)
[Verse 2]
G D (D)(D/E) Fdim7 A/E
Her roses are fading now, she keeps her pride somehow,
Ddim7 A/C# Bm Bm/E E7
That's all she has pro - tecting her from pain,
G D Fdim7 A/E
And, as the years go by, she will grow old and die,
Ddim7 A/C# Bm7
The roses in her garden fade a - way,
A/C# Bm7 E7/D A
Not one left for her grave, not a rose for Emily
[Chorus]
Bb F C#dim7 D
Emily------, can't you see, there's nothing you can do?
(Emily, can't you see? See-------- how the sun is..)
Gdim7 D/F# Gdim7 D D/C G
There's loving everywhere, but none------- for you-----!
(...shi-----------------ning again, but none for you---------!)
[Verse 3]
G D (D)(D/E) Fdim7 A/E
Her roses are fading now, she keeps her pride somehow,
Ddim7 A/C# Bm Bm/E E7
That's all she has pro - tecting her from pain,
G D Fdim7 A/E
And, as the years go by, she will grow old and die,
Ddim7 A/C# Bm7
The roses in her garden fade a - way,
A/C# Bm7 E7/D A
Not one left for her grave, not a rose for Emily
