The Rose You Left Me Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]The rose you left me,
when you left me nev[C]er died
And I [G]survived the piercing of [D]the thorn
[G]Wings cast shadows [C]across the sky
[Cm]Where you [G]lie, wait[D]ing to [G]be born
The night is darkened,
like a bird that [C]cannot see
You [G]blind me,
the beauty of [D]your [F#dim]light
[G]Petals fall around
and they're [C]sweet as sin
[Cm]Let me in, I[G] am we[D]ary from t[G]he fire
And I could never tell you
the way [C]I feel
I can [G]only kneel in this cold
and empty [D]place
[G]Take up the rose that [C]you gave to me
[Cm]Safe with me [G]until again
[D]I see your fac[G]e
The rose you left me,
when you left me, [C]never died
And I sur[G]vived the piercing
of [D]the thorn[F#dim][D]
[G]Wings cast shadows across
[C]the sky where [Cm]you [G]lie
Wait[D]ing to be [G]born
