Hope one of you guys might know the words to this song. I have the chord structure, but it helps if I have the words to go along with them.

A section: Rosetta, my Rosetta,
In my heart dear, there's no one but you...
etc.
Bridge: You made my whole life a dream,
and I pray you'll make it come true

that's all I know...
I think he also tells her he loves her

Tony, I have the words and chords for you, but I've had some trouble with your E Mail address.
Please send me a note to :

and I'll bounce it right back with words and chords.

Hey Tony,
What a great tune! My dad had an old 78rpm recording of this tune by ol' pugnose Wade Ray. I practically wore the darn thing out. Joel had most of the words right. I think the last line might have been something like "My dear I love no one but you". I used to play this as a finger style (Atkins/Travis) thing on the guitar. As you know it's got a great melody line and chord structure. In '87 or so I talked to Wade Ray at Scotty's convention about his recording and he thanked me for remembering it and said it'd always been one of his favorites too. I think Bob Wills had a good recording of it. You might run a search on Wills for the lyrics. Have a good 'un......Jerry
