There is a rose in Spanish Harlem.
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem.
F#
It is a special one..it's never seen the sun.
It only comes out when the moon is on the run
C#

It's growing in the street right up through the concrete,
C#
but soft and sweet and dreaming.

A red rose up in Spanish Harlem.
F#
With eyes as black as coal, that look down in my soul
and start a fire there and then I lose control,
C#
I have to beg your pardon.
G#
I'm gonna pick that rose and watch her as she grows,
C#
in my garden.
