[Intro]
A E A E
A E C#m B E
[Verse 1]
A E
When the summer sun is burning off
C#m B E
A lazy morning haze
A E
Revealing all the wonderful
C#m B A
The Good Lord kindly made
A E
Made the whippoorwills and white tailed deer
C#m B A
Made the chicker flowers bloom
E
But nothing takes away my breath
C#m B A
Like the smile He put on you
C#m B E
Like the smile He put on you
[Chorus]
A
There's no silver in my family name
E
No gold that I can give
A
But a promise I will love you
E B
Just as long as I live
A E
The yarrows and the daisies
C#m B A
All the bonnets I can find
E
I'll pick you wildflowers, girl
C#m B A
And kiss you sweet at night
C#m B E
I'll kiss you sweet at night
[Verse 2]
A E
When the winter lays a blanket down
C#m B E
And covers all the hills
A E
And the days are short, and all the creeks
C#m B A
And time is frozen still
A E
I'll keep the firewood stacked up 'til
C#m B A
The toms call in the spring
E
Then walk you through the meadow
C#m B A
With lady slippers at your feet
C#m B E
Lady slippers at your feet
[Chorus]
A
There's no silver in my family name
E
No gold that I can give
A
But a promise I will love you
E B
Just as long as I live
A E
The yarrows and the daisies
C#m B A
All the bonnets I can find
E
I'll pick you wildflowers, girl
C#m B A
And kiss you sweet at night
C#m B E
I'll kiss you sweet at night

The yarrows and the daisies

Honeysuckles on the vine

I'll pick you wildflowers, girl

I'll kiss you sweet at night
