Solomon Burke - My Rose Saved From The Street Chords

[Intro]
G A
 
 
[Verse 1]
        D       F#
See how she loves the eyes she catches
         Bm                 E       D
And the winds just blew her mind
              A                     Bm
These thrills will never meet their match
        D       F#
To her thorns I will stay blind
         Bm                 E       D
The kind of itch that stands all scratches
              A                     Bm
And the pain's a perfect bind
 
 
[Chorus]
        G                D
My rose saved from the street
        A               Bm      G
Nearly crushed under my feet
        A               Bm
You are my rose saved from the street
 
 
[Interlude]
F# Bm E D A
 
 
[Verse 2]
    D          F#
It all happened unexpected
         Bm          E    D
The night that I came down
        A               Bm
I felt somehow we did connected
D               F#
From the dirty part of town
           Bm        E           D
You were smiling without acting
      A               Bm
The way you wore that crooked crown
 
 
[Chorus]
         G              D
My rose saved from the street
         A              Bm   G
You are my rose saved from the street
      G             D
I might have thought that I found you
            A               Bm
But I bet you knew we were meant to meet
 
         G              D
My rose saved from the street
         A              Bm   G
Nearly crushed under my feet
         A              E
You are my rose saved from the street
 
 
[Bridge]
     F#                Bm
You were waiting there just to be picked
        G          D
Or was that just a pose
    G            D          E
Could it have been anyone
                      D
Or was it really me you chose

[Verse 3]
         D               F#
See how she loves the eyes we're catching
          Bm           E    D
Like the winds just blew our minds
         A                 Bm
These thrills will never meet their match
       D                 F#
To her thorns I will be blind
         Bm       E     D
Our hearts and dreams entangled
        A               Bm
No boundaries for us to find
 
 
[Chorus]
         G              D
My rose saved from the street
         A              Bm   G
You are my rose saved from the street
      G             D
I might have thought that I found you
            A               Bm
But I bet you knew we were meant to meet
 
         G              D
My rose saved from the street
         A              Bm   G
Nearly crushed under my feet
A                 A               D
  You are my rose saved from the street
