Here's a very popular old Autry/Rose song that's fun to perform:
BE HONEST WITH ME (Gene Autry & Fred Rose, 1941)
Key of A
(CHORUS)
Be Honest With [A] Me, Dear, [D] Whatever you [A] do.
Remember you're [E7] mine, Dear, -- So always be [A] true.
Wherever you wander, -- on [D] land or on [A] sea,
If you really [E7] love me, -- Be Honest With [A] Me.
My poor heart would [A] break, dear [D] If you were un- [A] true.
Asleep or a- [E7] wake, Dear -- I'll dream about [A] you.
Oh, you are my darling, [D] You're all that I see.
If you really [E7] love me, -- Be Honest With [A] Me.
(CHORUS) Be Honest With Me, Dear, etc.
Someday I'll re- [A] turn, Dear, [D] And make you my [A] own.
And how I will [E7] yearn, Dear, -- When I'm all [A] alone,
I'll never forget, Dear, [D] Your sweet memo- [A] ry,
If you really [E7] love me, -- Be Honest With Me.
(CHORUS) Be Honest With Me, Dear, etc.
