A Teardrop On A Rose

While [C] strolling thru a lovely [G7] garden As day was drawing to a [C] close...[G7] My [C] eyes be-[C7]-held a tragic [F] story I [G7] saw a teardrop on a [C] rose. It should have been a tear of gladness But deep inside the sorrow shows A trusting heart had just been broken I saw a teardrop on a rose. A sobbing tear that follows parting Holds all the pain that sorrow knows A book to buy a life is shattered There lies a story on a rose. The tear will dry the rose will wither When spring and winter comes and goes I loved, I lost, my story ended With just a teardrop on a rose.
