D MajorD     Dmaj7Dmaj7
I know Rosie,
     G+G     A augmentedA        D MajorD    G+G  Dsus4Dsus4  A augmentedA
You're living in a world you didn't make?
         D MajorD      Dmaj7Dmaj7
And I know it's hard feeling happy?
      G+G             A augmentedA       B minorBm  G+G   A augmentedA
When the things you want aren't even there to take


 G+G   F minorFm         E minorEm    D?
Come on Rosie, rosin up the bow?
Dmaj7Dmaj7                 D7D7
For the more I learn it's the less I seem to know?
G+G     F minorFm       E minorEm          D MajorD
Lie down cozy and let's learn to take things slow
?Dmaj7             G+G       E minorEm
For the more I learn it's the less I seem to know?
    A augmentedA
Of my Rosie
?G      D MajorD    A augmentedA      D MajorD
Come on, my Rosie, rosin up the bow.

D MajorD        Dmaj7Dmaj7
Throw away your uniform?
G+G         A augmentedA          D MajorD   G+G Dsus4Dsus4  A augmentedA
Now's the time to take things by the hand
?     D MajorD          Dmaj7Dmaj7
Come on in and take your coat off
?G         A augmentedA      B minorBm
Settle down and listen to the band
?         G+G   A augmentedA
And ain't that grand, Rosie


 G+G   F minorFm         E minorEm    D?
Come on Rosie, rosin up the bow?
Dmaj7Dmaj7                 D7D7
For the more I learn it's the less I seem to know?
G+G     F minorFm       E minorEm          D MajorD
Lie down cozy and let's learn to take things slow
?Dmaj7             G+G       E minorEm
For the more I learn it's the less I seem to know?
    A augmentedA
Of my Rosie
?G      D MajorD    A augmentedA      D MajorD  D7D7
Come on, my Rosie, rosin up the bow.
?G      D MajorD    A augmentedA      D MajorD  D7D7
Come on, my Rosie, rosin up the bow.
?G      D MajorD    A augmentedA      D MajorD  D7D7
Come on, my Rosie, rosin up the bow.
?G      D MajorD    A augmentedA      D MajorD
Come on, my Rosie, rosin up the bow.
