Thought I would submit a version of this that was correct and was in a key for a
guy to sing who's balls have dropped LOL.... use dynamics between verses
THE ROSE
G D
Some say love, it is a river,
C D G
That drowns the tender reed
(Stay on G Chord) D
Some say love, it is a razor,
C D G
That leaves your soul to bleed
Bm Em
Some say love it is a hunger,
C D
An endless aching need
G D
I say love it is a flower and
C D G
You its only seed

G D
It's the heart afraid of breaking
C D G
That never learns to dance
(G) D
It's the dream afraid of waking
C D G
That never takes a chance
Bm Em
It's the one, who won't be taken
C D
Who cannot seem to give
G D
And the soul afraid of dying
C D G
That never learns to live
G D
When the night has been too lonely
C D G
And the road has been too long
(G) D
And you feel that love is only
C D G
For the lucky and the strong
Bm Em
Just remember in the winter
D C D-Dsus
Far beneath the bitter snow
G D
Lies the seed that with the sun's love,
C D Em7 2bars G (A non resolving finish!!)
In the spring becomes the rose
