The Broken Rose chords by Squire Parsons

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
F                              Bb                   F
Words cannot describe its beauty as upon the stem it grows
                              G            C
Matchless in its glory, the tender little rose
F                                  Bb                F
When its petals are broken, its greatest beauty it shows
                   Dm      C             F
For sweeter the fragrance of the broken Rose


Chorus:
F                             Bb    Am  Gm
The most beautiful Rose was broken one day
F                       G7      C
Nailed to a tree on a hill far away
F                          Bb    Am Gm   F
Forsaken by His friends, bruised by His foes
                    Dm          C             F
How sweet is the fragrance of heaven's sweet Rose

Verse 2:
      F                            Bb             F
Then they laid that broken Rose in a borrowed tomb
                  Dm        G               C
But on the third day, that Rose again did bloom
F                                  Bb              F
Now to the heights of heaven, down to the deepest hell
                            Dm     C        F
The fragrance of heaven's Rose continually dwells


Chorus:
F                             Bb    Am  Gm
The most beautiful Rose was broken one day
F                       G7      C
Nailed to a tree on a hill far away
F                          Bb    Am Gm   F
Forsaken by His friends, bruised by His foes
                    Dm          C             F
How sweet is the fragrance of heaven's sweet Rose

F                          Bb    Am Gm   F
Forsaken by His friends, bruised by His foes
                    Dm          C             F
How sweet is the fragrance of heaven's sweet Rose
