[Eb] 30 some odd years ago, a young man came [Bb] to Memphis, asking about [F] a rose that used [Eb] to
blossom in his [Bb] world.
People never [Ab] took the time to [Eb] mind the young [Bb] man's questions,
until one day [Cm] they heard him ask [F] a little green-eyed [Bb]
girl.
What's your [Eb] mama's name, [F] child?

20 some [A] odd years [E] ago, a drunkard down [B] in Memphis
lost a month [Gb] of life and [E] labor to the county [B] jail.
Just because [A] he asked a little [E] green-eyed girl [B] a question
and offered her [Dbm] a nickel's worth [Gb] of candy if [B] she'd tell.
[C]
A year and some [Bb] odd days ago, [F] an old man died [C] in Memphis,
just another [G] wayward soul [F] the county had [C] claimed.
Inside the old [Bb] man's ragged coat they [F] found a faded [C] letter.
Said, you have [Dm] a daughter, and [G] her eyes are Wilson [C] green.
