‘Round her neck; a 1950 popular song
words and music by Jack Edwards
arranged by Walter L. Rosemont
It seems likely that I have presented the chorus only of a song that may have verses. Unfortunately, many modern transcriptions leave out the verses.
The sheet music:
Accompaniment:
Lyrics
‘Round her neck she wore a yella ribbon
She wore it in the winter
I’ll remember her that way
And when I ask her ’bout the yella ribbon
She says, “It’s for my lover who has gone far away
Far away, far away”
She says, “It’s for my lover who has gone far away
Far away, far away”
She says, “It’s for my lover who has gone far away”
