In Amongst The Roses chords

  			
Intro: A  Em  A  C  F  Em 

verse 1 
              G           A    Am 
The old house stands deserted 
                Em 
Crumbling and decaying 
           G            A    Am 
Its broken windows watching 
                 Em        Am 
As a young child wanders 
               Em 
In amongst the roses 
    G             A    Am 
Overgrown and falling 
                    Em 
The garden once was cared for 
        G           A    Em  A  C  F  Em 
Life is like the garden 


verse 2 
          G              A    Am 
The roses reach to touch her 
                    Em 
They whisper as she passes 
             G         A    Am 
Their petals form a carpet 
                 Em        Am 
Soft and warm and scented 
               Em 
In amongst the roses 
        G            A    Am 
Full in bloom and fading 
                       Em 
The young child cannot hear them 
        G              A      Em  A  C  F  Em 
Life is like the young child 


verse 3 
                G              A    Am 
The young child has been gathering 
                Em 
Flowers for her mother 
        G          A    Am 
Flowers for her bedside 
                Em     Am 
Flowers for her table 
               Em 
In amongst the roses 
       G             A    Am 
She is gathering wildflowers 
                  Em 
The roses bend to kiss her 
        G          A    Em  A  C  F  Em 
Life is like the roses 


verse 4 

              G           A    Am 
The old house stands deserted 
                Em 
Crumbling and decaying 
           G            A    Am 
Its broken windows watching 
                 Em        Am 
As a young child wanders 
               Em 
In amongst the roses 
        G            A    Am 
Full in bloom and fading 
                       Em 
The young child cannot hear them 
        G              A      Em  A  C  F  Em 
Life is like the young child
