[Intro]
G C Am D G
[Verse 1]
G C
Do you remember how we loved that summer,
Am D
how you held me tight and we would dance the night away
G C Am
And then the leaves come down and took away the love we found.
D D7 G D
and left me in a lonely world of grey
[Chorus]
G C Am
Cause a rose has to die, every time you tell a lie,
D D7 G D
a promise once its given must be true.
G C Am
Watch each rose bow its head when it knows our love is dead,
D D7 G
and it's never gonna bloom again for you.
[Verse 2]
G C
On the beach the harbour lights are shining,
Am D
I remember how they used to shine for you and me.
G D7 C Am
And in the park where roses bloomed, once I whispered I love you.
D D7 G D
there's nothing but a weeping willow tree.
[Chorus]
G C Am
Cause a rose has to die, every time you tell a lie,
D D7 G D
a promise once its given must be true.
G C Am
Watch each rose bow its head when it knows our love is dead,
D D7 G
and it's never gonna bloom again for you.
[Outro]
G C Am
Watch each rose bow its head when it knows our love is dead,
D D7 G
and it's never gonna bloom again for you.
