Ricky Skaggs

^D Don't let your sweet love die
like ^D7 flowers in the ^G fall
don't ^A7 take away the smiles and leave the ^D tears
my heart believes in you
please ^D7 say you'll love me ^G true
don't ^A7 leave me here to face the lonely ^D years
I drifted all alone
no ^D7 one to call my ^G own
and ^A7 then you came like an angel from the ^G sky
you ^D said we'd never part
don't ^D7 leave and break my ^G heart
be ^A7 mine alone
don't let your sweet love ^D die
Repeat Chorus 1
^D When flowers fade they say
they'll ^D7 bloom again some ^G day
will you ^A7 love me when the rosebuds open ^G wide
or ^D is your kiss to be
on- ^D7 -ly a memor- ^G -y
I ^A7 need you so
don't let your sweet love ^D die
Chorus 2:
^E Don't let your sweet love die
like ^E7 flowers in the ^A fall
with- ^B7 -out life would be like death to ^E me ^B7
I've grown so used to you
I ^E7 can't believe we're ^A through
be ^B7 mine alone
don't let your sweet love ^E die
Repeat Chorus 2
I ^B7 need you so don't let your sweet love ^E die
