    Greetings everyone! Our fiddle player was recently at a jam and a guy played a song and sang the first line, "When This Wedding Ring Was New". Does anyone have any idea the name of this tune or where we could get the song or tabs? Our fiddler thought it was an old fiddle tune back from the 30's or 40's. Perhaps someone out there in Mandoland has heard it and could shed alittle light? Blessings to you all on this Thanksgiving Day..Angelfire

    Shades of night are falling
    Bringing memories
    Memories of a bygone day
    Though it may be December
    Though we're old and gray
    To me you're still my blushing bride of May

    When your old wedding ring was new
    And each dream that we dreamed came true
    I remember with pride how we stood side by side
    What a beautiful picture you made as my bride
    Even though silver crowns your hair
    I can still see those gold ringlets there
    Love's old flame is the same
    As the day I changed your name
    When your old wedding ring was new

    When your old wedding ring was new
    and the dreams that we dreamed came true
    I remember with pride
    when we stood side by side
    what a beautiful picture
    you made as my bride
    Now although silver crowns your hair
    I remember those gold ringlets there
    Love's refrain still remains
    as the day I changed your name
    when your old wedding ring was new.
