Paradise Rose chords by Waylon Jennings

Chords with lyrics

I posted this on Sept 18th 2010.
As of this date NO ONE has posted the chords or tab
for this song properly. I'm no music theorist, but this
is the way it's done...

Verse 1
Chord diagramD MajorD                         Chord diagramC majorC
She was a flower for the takin'
Chord diagramG+G                          Chord diagramD MajorD
Her beauty cut just like a knife.
Chord diagramD MajorD                   Chord diagramC majorC
He was a banker from Macon.
Chord diagramG+G                              Chord diagramD MajorD
He swore he'd love her all his life.

Verse 2
Chord diagramD MajorD                             Chord diagramC majorC
He bought her mansion up on a mountain,
Chord diagramG+G                                Chord diagramD MajorD
With a floral garden and alot of land.
Chord diagramD MajorD                       Chord diagramC majorC
But paradise became her prison
Chord diagramG+G                                    Chord diagramD MajorD
That Georgia banker was a jealous man

Chorus
Chord diagramB minorBm                       Chord diagramG+G
And Every time he talked about her
Chord diagramB minorBm                           Chord diagramG+G    Chord diagramA augmentedA
You could see the fire in his eyes

...and he'd say...

Chord diagramD MajorD                            Chord diagramC majorC
I would walk through hell on Sunday
Chord diagramG+G                          Chord diagramD MajorD
To keep my rose in paradise

verse 3
He hired a man to tend the garden
And keep an eye on her while he was gone
Some say they ran away together
Some say that gardener left alone

Verse 4
Now that banker He's an old man
That mansions crumblin' down
He sits all day and stares at the garden
Not a trace of her was ever found

Chorus

Verse 5
Now there's a rose out in the garden
It's beauty cuts just like a knife
Some say it even grows in the winter time
and blooms in the dead of the night

I like to repeat the chorus again at the end, but Waylon doesn't do it this a way. Enjoy.
