  			C#                          F# 
She  planted  roses ,  the  first  year  we 
               C# 
married -  it  soon  was  a  garden  we'd  go  
         G#            C# 
walking  through - My job kept me travling 
              F# 
but  when  I  came  home  to  heaven  
        C#                          G# 
She was so proud to show me- all the love 
         C#      A 
that she grew 
D                             G 
I  heard  her  talking , one  day  to  a  old  
                      D 
 friend  She said  I  don't  want  to  hurt  him 
                      A     D 
But  its  out  of  control . I  feel  so  guilty   
       G                              D 
cause  he'll  be  so  helpless -  He  won't 
                    A              D 
understand  why  I  just  got  to  go 

         G 
 Now  I  come  to  the  garden  alone  
          C 
 All  my  reasons  I  once  had  for  living  are 
G                           B7             C 
gone  . Sometimes  when  I  feel  like  I  just 
          A      G               D           G    A 
cant  go  on -  I  come  to  the  garden  alone 
 
 
 
No  one  can  imagine -  just  how  much  I  miss 
her . I'd  give  up  this  whole  world  to  once  more 
hold  her  near.  It's  just  beyond  on  me  why  god 
took  her  from  me  I  bet  the  flowers  in  heaven 
are  looking  better  this  year. 
 
 
 
Chorus  : 
 
2. Where  the  dew  kissed  the  roses -  where weeds 
   now have grown
