_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Many years have passed, I'm sorry to _ say, since I've been to visit [E] my [A] daddy's grave. _
_ When the telephone rang, I heard sisters _ _ say, _ _
Greenbriars are growing on our daddy's grave. _
_ I went to the place where my daddy _ lay,
And saw the greenbriars [E] growing up through [A] the clay. _
_ So it took me a spade, and it took me a _ hoe,
To turn away the greenbriar when [E] daddy [A] _ unrolled. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ In life, dad's a briar, and mom's are the roe,
_ _ But in death, they're different.
_ [E] _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ Sometimes at midnight, when the cold wind blows,
_ _ I think of the graveyard and [E] my [A] daddy's roe.
I went to the place where my daddy lay,
_ _ And saw the greenbriars [E] growing up through the [A] clay. _
So it took me a spade, and it took me a hoe,
To turn away the greenbriar [E] when daddy _ [A] unrolled. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ And casted shadows on [E] my [A] daddy's tomb. _ _
So listen, good people, to these words I say,
And keep the greenbriars [E] off of your [A] daddy's grave. _ _
I went to the place where my daddy lay,
_ And saw the greenbriars [Em] growing up [A] through the clay.
_ _ So it took me a spade, and it took me a _ hoe,
To turn away the greenbriar when [E] daddy _ _ unrolled.

Springtime is a-coming in the mountain,
_ A river on the hill where [F#] daddy _ lay.
[B] _
All the songbirds were singing,
_ And a robin [F#] built a nest on [B] daddy's grave.
_ [E] I played dad's roe some [B] time _ _ ago,
Oh, the roe's how [F#] it did grow.
[Bm] _ [B] _
Springtime has come, I'm glad to _ say,
And a robin [F#] built a nest on [B] daddy's grave. _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Oh, the rose bloomed so _ red,
And spread its beauty [F#] o'er that bed.
_ [B]
Then a robin came one _ day,
And there she [F#] built a nest on [B] daddy's grave.
[E] I played dad's roe [B] some time _ ago,
Oh, the roe's how it did [F#] grow. _ _

And a robin built a nest on daddy's grave. _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
Oh, the roe's how it bloomed,
I believe the Lord is coming [F#] [B] soon.
_ That's what the roe did seem to say,
_ And a robin [F#] built a nest on [B] daddy's grave.
_ [E] I played dad's roe [B] some time ago, _
Oh, the roe's how it [F#] did grow.
_ [B] _
Springtime has come, I'm glad to say,
And a robin [F#] built a nest [B] on daddy's grave.
