This is the way I saw Jeff Tweedy playing it live.
Capo 5th.
Verse 1
They were Emstrolling in the gloaming
Where the Amroses were in bloom
A C/Gsoldier and his sweetheart brave and Gtrue
And their Emhearts were filled with sorrow
For their Amthoughts were of tomorrow
As she C/Gpinned a rose upon his coat of Gblue
Chorus
Do not C/Gask me love to linger
When you Amknow not what to say
For Gduty calls your sweetheart's name Emagain
And your C/Gheart need not be sighing
If AmI be among the dying
I'll be Gwith you when the roses bloom Emagain
Verse 2
When the Emroses bloom again
BesAmide the river
And the C/Gmockingbird has sung his sweet reGfrain
In the Emdays of Old Lang Syne
I'll be Amwith you sweetheart mine
I'll be C/Gwith you when the roses bloom Gagain
Verse 3
Mid the Emrattle of the battle
Came a whisAmper soft and low
A C/Gsoldier who had fallen in the Gfray
I am Emdying, I am dying
And I Amknow I'll have to go
But I want to C/Gtell you before I pass aGway
Chorus
There's a C/Gfar and distant river
Where the Amroses are in bloom
A Gsweetheart who is waiting there for Emme
And it's C/Gthere I pray you take me
I've been Amfaithful, don't forsake me
I'll be Gwith her when the roses bloom Emagain
