Chord/Tab song: December Rose

THE REAL THING

[G] [D] [Bm] [D] [A] [D]
T[D]HIS OLD MAN CAME IN FROM THE C[G]OLD
AND [D]HE WALKED RIGHT [E]UP TO THE B[A]ANDSTAND
HE L[D]OOKED AT ME THROUGH TEARS IN HIS [G]EYES
HE WHIS[D]PERED AS HE REAC[A]HED FOR MY [D]HAND

HE SAID SON DO YOU KNOW THE OLD SONGS
OS SAID YES SIR, I CAN PLAY EM ALL NIGHT
HE ASKED ME TO PLAY HIM CORRINA
THE LAST SONG HE DANCED TO WITH HIS WIFE

JUST AS THE SONG WAS ENDING
A SMILE ON HIS FACE BEGAN TO SHOW
AS HE SLOWLY DREW FROM HIS POCKET
A SHORT STEMMED DECEMBER ROSE

CHORUS:
HE SAID [G]YOULL NEVER SEE ME WIT[D]HOUT IT
WH[G]EREVER IM GOIN IT GO[D]ES
OU[G]R LOVE WILL NOT BE F[D]ORGOTTE[Bm]N
RE[D]MEMBER A DEC[A]EMBER RO[D]SE

HE SAID SON ILL TELL YOU ABOUT HARD TIMES
THAT WINTER OF THIRTY THREE
I GAVE HER THAT ROSE ON HER BIRTHDAY
AND THIS WHAT SHE SAID TO ME

REPEAT CHORUS

HE SAID SON I WANT YOU TO HAVE THIS
SO THE MEMORY CAN LIVE ON AND ON
SOON ILL BE WITH HER IN HEAVEN
HE GAVE ME THAT ROSE AND WAS GONE

YOU MAY SAY ITS ONLY A FLOWER
AND FLOWERS THEY GROW EVERYDAY
TO ME ITS A SYMBOL OF UNDYING LOVE
AND IT STAYS IN MY GUITAR CASE

REPEAT CHORUS
