The Rose chords by The Kelly Family

D              A           G         A      D
Some say love, it is a river that drowns the tender reed
         D              A           G         A      D
Some say love, it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed
         bm             G           Em           A
Some say love, it is a hunger, an endless aching need
         D              A       G        A     D
I say love, it is a flower, and you it's only seed

         D                A              G      A        D
It's the heart, afraid of breaking, that never learns to dance
         D                A            G     A         D
It's the dream, afraid of waking, that never takes the chance
         bm               G          Em             A
It's the one who won't be taken, who cannot seem to give
         D              A           G     A         D
And the soul, afraid of dyin', that never learns to live

         D                  A
When the night has been too lonely
        G        A        D
And the road has been too long
        D                  A            G     A       D
And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong
        bm            G          Em                A
Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows
         D                   A                  G
Lies the seed, that with the sun's love, in the spring
A           D
Becomes The Rose
