Author, Lyrics and Music
25 October 2006
Intro: 3/4 D / / A / / D / / (ABC#)
D / / A / / D / / (A B C#)
The big man, gave her his love
D / / A / / D / / (D E F#)
But she had another she dreamed of
G / / G / / D / / (D C# D)
The big man up and died, from his broken heart
E / / E / / A - - (A B C#)
I watched her and she never cried
D / / A / / D / / (A B C#)
When she died, they were buried together
D / / A / / D / / (D E F#)
Soon after, a vine began to grow
G / / G / / D / / (D C# D)
On his grew a beautiful flower
E / / E / / A - - (A B C#)
On her side grew only thorns
D / / A / / D / / (A B C#)
Some say that?s the legend of the rose
D / / A / / D / / (D E F#)
On love side a flower will grow
G / / G / / D / / (D C# D)
But pain and deceit can bring only thorns
E / / E / / A - - (A B C#)
On her side no flower would bloom
D / / A / / D / / (A B C#)
The big man was sent to his grave
D / / A / / D / / (D E F#)
Brought down by cheating and pain
G / / G / / D / / (D C# D)
From that day till this day that flower grows
A / / A / / D / / (D E F#)
Now you know the legend of the rose
Lead: G / / G / / D / / (D C# B) A / / A / / D / / (D E F#)
G / / G / / D / / (D C# D)
From that day till this day that flower grows
A / / A / / G / / A / / D / / (GF#E) D - - Now you know the legend of the rose
