G C G C G
The morning we moved in this house you said let's make a bed of roses
D7 G D7
So hand in hand we found that special place and I broke the ground
G C G C G
I wiped that delta dirt from your face as you knelt there to sow them
Am D7 G G7
Oh I'd give anything a mortal man could give if you could see them now
C G C G
Through the kitchen windowpane I can see the roses
D7 G G7
The ones we planted that first spring are blooming like they did when you were here
C G Em
Someone's always left behind when the door of this life closes
Am D7 G C
So I sit alone and watch it rain on our bed of roses
G C G C G
Some days I sit for hours at the time just stirring at those roses
D7 G D7
They seem so young and full of life but soon they'll face the winter chill
G C G C G
I don't know how long I can survive but one thing that I know is
Am D7 G D7
Come spring time the roses will return but you never will
Repeat #2
Am D7 C G
So I sit alone and watch it rain on our bed of roses
