Intro:

C# F# D# C# F# D# G# C# E A D7

Verse 1:

G                           C  A
Deep within my heart lies a melody
    D              G
The song of old San Antone
                                 C  A
Where in dreams, I live with the memory
D                     G
Beneath the stars all alone

Verse 2:

G                      C         A
It was there, I found beside the Alamo
D7                         G
Enchantment strange as the blue up above
                    C               A
A moonlit path that only she would know
D                             G
Still hears my broken song of love

Chorus:

D                               A
Moon and all your splendor know only my heart
A                          D
Call back my rose, Rose of San Antone
                         A
Lips so sweet and tender like petals falling apart
                        D
Speak once again of my love my own

Verse 3:

G                     C        A
Oh, broken song, empty words I know
      D                   G
Still live in my heart all alone
G                            C A
For that moonlit path by the Alamo
    D                   G
And rose, my rose of San Antone

Outro:
