Capo II

G7sus4

The Rose

Amanda McBroom / Bette Midler: The Rose (1980)

Intro: C G F G C
C G F G C
Some say love it is a river that drowns the tender reed,
C G7 F G C
Some say love it is a razor that leeds your soul to bleed.
Em Am7 F G7sus4 G7
Some say love it is a hunger an endless aching need,
G7 C G F G C
I say love it is a flower and you it's only seed.
 
C G F G C
It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance,
G F G C
It's the dream afraid of waking but never takes the chance.
Em Am7 F G7sus4 G7
It's the one who won't be taken who cannot seem to give,
C G F G C
And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live
 
C G F G C
When the night has been too lonely and the road has been too long,
C G F G C
And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong.
Em Am7 F G7sus4 G7
Just remember in the winter, far beneath the bitter snows,
C G F G (n.c.) C
Lies the seed that with the sun's love in the spring becomes the rose.
