Here's a rose from the garden
E A
Where the bloom of romance grows
A A7 D
But I'll keep one part for my achin' heart
E A
Just a petal from a faded rose
A D
Love is sweet in the morning
E A
When the breeze of summer blows
A A7 D
But will fade and die when the winter's nigh
E A
Like a petal from a faded rose
A D
Now our love is a memory
E A
Where it's gone, God only knows
A A7 D
But I'll hold so dear, as a souvenir
E A
Just a petal from a faded rose
A D
I will live with the roses
E A
Where the string of memory flows
A A7 D
And each time I dream, there a tear will gleam
E A
On the petal from a faded rose
