[VERSE 1:]
A soft summer evening, another time, anoth[F]er place
He brought her red [C]roses on their very first [G]date
She got [C]carried away by the [C7]things that [F]he said
Time would e[C]rase them, but she would [G]never for[C]get
[CHORUS:]
And the ro[Bb]ses [Am]heard [Gm]it [F]all
The rose in her hair, the rose in her hand
The roses in the paper on the [C]wall
There's a story to [Bb]tell[F]__ if [Bb]roses could [C]talk
[INTERLUDE:] C Bb F Bb C
[VERSE 2:]
Somewhere close to midnight, another time, anoth[F]er place
She lays in the [C]darkness with tears on her[G] face
While he [C]talks in his sleep, con[C7]fessing his[F] love
He calls out a [C]name that she's[G] never heard[C] of
[CHORUS:]
And the ro[Bb]ses [Am]heard [Gm]it [F]all
The rose in her hair, the rose in her hand
The roses in the paper on the [C]wall
There's a story to [Bb]tell[F]__ if [Bb]roses could [C]talk
[BRIDGE:]
[Bb]She never told him
She [F]never let him see her[C] cry[C-Cadd9-C-]
[Dm]Only the roses know
[F]What she kept down [G]inside
[VERSE 3:]
The years took their toll and the angels took her a[F]way
Now there's family and [C]friends at a cold winter[G]'s grave
He [C]kneels down and whispers, 'You're the [C7]only love that I've[F] known'
As he lays a [C]rose on a [G]cold marble[C] stone
[CHORUS:]
But the ro[Bb]ses [Am]heard [Gm]it [F]all
The rose from her garden, the rose in her bible
The roses in the paper on the [C]wall
There's a story to [Bb]tell[F]__ if [Bb]roses could [C]talk
What a story they'd [Bb]tell[F] if [Bb]roses could [C]talk
