Runrig - The Only Rose
INTRO: G D Em C G D C
G D Em C G D C
Em
Between the shifting shadows
G D
In the no-man's zone
C D Em
There's a bar at the end of the street
Some poor country music
G D
One or two Sixty's songs
C D Em
And a place where the night owls sleep
G D
Oh, loneliness
G D
You're a hard earned crust
Em D
You're the night at the end of day
Em
'Cause you pay your dues
G D
On the road you choose
C D Em
With the price you have to pay
INTERLUDE:G D Em C G D C
G D Em C G D C
Em
Down the neon aisles
G D
And the twilight miles
C D Em
Where the world takes comfort in shame
And all I can hear
G D
Is a voice in my ear
C D Em
And it's calling out your name
G D
Still the silence glows
G D
The four winds blow
Em D
And a dark moon rising above
Em
Oh, to rest by your side
G D
In the heat of the fire
C D Em
In the sleep of the night of love
BRIDGE:
G D
When darkness hangs
Em Bm
On the dirty city
Em D Em C
Winter falls on a foreign town
G D
And it's all I can do
Am C
To be here with you
Em D
Tonight as the sun goes down
G D
But I would cross
G D
The ocean wide
Em D
I'd walk the mighty foam
Em
If I could lie
G D
In your arms tonight
C D Em
You're the only rose I know
