Spanish Rose Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

GThe wine beneath the bed,

GThe things we've done and said

GAnd all the memories that come glancing back to Cme

In my Gloneliness

GYou're standing in the breach

GBeyond that stretch, but our love will reach

GUnconsciousness that find me sometimes Cwondering

Where you're Gat.

Hmm, Dtake me back again,

DTake me back one more time, Spanish Grose.

G C G

Verse 2

The way you pulled the gate

Behind you when you said, "It ain't too late,

Come on, let's have a ball

And swing the town tonight."

And hoping you'd come through

And many others, too,

And all the friends we used to have in days gone by,

I'm wondering

If you'll take me back again,

Take me back one more time, Spanish rose.

Verse3

And when the lights went out

And no one was abandoning the country in full bloom,

In the room we danced

And many hearts were torn

And when the word went around that everything was wrong

And couldn't be put right

It tore me up, it tore me up.

(additional verse:)

The way you held a note

The trembling in your throat,

That just beginning of your wondrous smile.

The rising of the water

The winter winds of days gone by.

I often ask myself and wonder why

It's gone.

Ohhh take me back again,

You have to take me back again,

Take me back one more time, Spanish Rose.

In slumber you did sleep,

The window I did creep

And touch your raven hair and sing that song

Again to you.

You did not even wince,

You thought I was the Prince

To come and take you from your misery

And lonely castle walls.

Ah, take me back again,

Take me back one more time, Spanish rose.

G-D-G-D for the ending on the song

(Ending to song)

Ah ah, ah ah,

Mmmj, mmm,

Da da da di da da da ...
