          FIRST ROSE OF SPRING
           WILLIE NELSON

INTRO:
D A E7

VERSE:
A E7            A
  The first time I saw her
D                A
 He knew everything had changed
D              A
 Overnight love started blooming
E7             A  A
 Like the first rose of spring

VERSE:
A      E7      A
 Auburn hair like a sunrise
D              A
 Sweetest smile he`d ever seen
D               A
 Butterflies, they danced around her
E7             A
 Like the first rose of spring

CHORUS:
 B7            E7
Summertime would`ve never started
B7              E7
 And wintertime would never end
 A          D
She colored his life, opened his eyes
   A         D
To things he`d never dream
A       E7       A
 Without the first rose of spring

CHORUS:
 B7             E7
Gave him children like a garden
B7                  E7
 They gave `em all the love they`d need
A         D
To grow up strong, she made a home
 A           D
And every year, he`d bring
A     E7      A   A
 Her the first rose of spring


VERSE:
A E7           A
  The last time he saw her
D              A
 He knew everything had changed
D
 He said goodbye
       A       D
And let the tears fall like rain
A     E7    A    D A D  A
 On the first rose of spring
