I sing it in D--

 D
  Wonderful things of folks are said
  A                       D
  When they have passed away
  D
  Roses adorn their narrow bed
  A                  D
  Over the sleeping clay
  G                    D
  Give me the roses while I live
  D                  A
  Trying to cheer me on
  D
  Useless are flowers that you give
  A                  D
  After the soul is gone
