E     F#    F#7              B
and I saw a tear drop on the rose.


VERSE ONE
B                                F# 	 
While strollin’ through a lovely garden
           F#7          B
as day was drawin’ to a close.
        B7              E
My eyes beheld a tragic story
  F#    F#7              B
I saw a tear drop on the rose.


VERSE TWO

   B                           F#
It should have been a tear of gladness
          F#7               B
But deep inside the sorrow showed.
           B7                  E
A trustin’ heart had just been broken
  F#    F#7              B
I saw a tear drop on the rose.


VERSE THREE

  B                          F#
A sobbing tear that follows parting,
              F#7              B
holds all the pain that sorrow knows.
         B7                   E
A false goodbye...a life is shattered.
      F#       F#7          B
There lies the story on the rose


VERSE FOUR

    B                              F#
The tear will dry...the rose will wither.
                F#7              B
When spring and winter comes and goes
            B7            E
I loved..I lost..my story ended.
     F#     F#7              B
With just a tear drop on the rose.
