Verse
F Scenes of my childhood arise before my gaze, C G Bringing recollections of bygone happy days. F When down in the meadow in childhood I would roam, C F No one's left to cheer me now with-in that good old home, Dm Father and Mother, they have pass'd away; C E Sister and brother, now lay beneath the clay,
Chorus
F Gm But while life does remain to cheer me, I'll re-tain Am G This small violet I pluck'd from mother's grave.
Break
G Only a violet I pluck'd when but a boy, C G And oft'times when sad at heart this flow'r has giv'n me joy;
Chorus
F Gm But while life does remain in memoriam I'll re-tain, Am G This small violet I pluck'd from mother's grave.
Verse
F Well I remember my dear old mother's smile, C G As she used to greet me when I returned from toil, F Always knitting in the old arm chair, C F Father used to sit and read for all us children there, Dm But now all is silent around the good old home; C E They all have left me in sorrow here to roam,
Chorus
F Gm But while life does remain, in memoriam I'll re-tain Am F This small violet I pluck'd from mother's grave.
