Intro: Drumbeats x4 then x2 verse 1: Rose can I come down for a drink? It has happened again I've got a story I'm sure will end poorly I'll begin at the end Rose you must know I couldn't find the words That it takes to say stay Now she's gone away verse 2: Rose can I come down to your garden? I can only wilt flowers Bring me your shovel There's a heart to be buried And a body as well Your letters are tied with a strand of your hair In a breast pocket safe they keep talking Bridge 1: Now I wake up alone With my eyes to the floor And I see you well at my night Well and weeping once more Guitar Solo: x2 verse 3: Rose can I come down to your rose bed? To lay in your thorns Know I meant it so must be buried I will not be mourned Rose you must know I felt more than I said Now I've got all the words And no one Bridge 2: Now the hole has been dug And I'm down on my knees Rain make us mud Spring with bloomer's one Outro: x2 (hold)
