Texas Rose - Song by Phil Hartman © 7/2000- written 2-ā84, outside Van
Alstyne, TX
G D
C
A rose grows in Texas, a wild rose of Texas Makes me Cry.
G D
C
A five petaled flower, that grows by the treeline Makes me sigh.
G D C
G
The dew on the petals remind me of teardrops shed at some thoughtless
refrain.
G D C
G
And every Springtime I say Iāll take time to go see that rose bloom
again.
G D C
G
A childhood sweetheart, returns to my mind everytime Iām feeling some
pain
G D C
G
I guess its just natural to find some kind refuge to keep you from going
insane
G D C
G
But when Iāve been drinking I canāt help thinkin that somehow its all
been in vain.
G D C
A rose grows in Texas, a wild rose of Texas Makes me Cry
(Lead) G D C D X2
G D
C G
You only get one chance to do your own dance then its lost to the wind
and the rain
G D
C G
The rose only blooms once then gives up itās flowers like a love song
begun with a lie
G D C
G
And I canāt help feeling that some of you listening have seen someone
waving goodbye
G D C
G
A rose grows in Texas, a wild rose of Texas Makes me Sigh
G D
C G
I think of times gone by with some kind forgiveness clouds hiding pain
G D
C G
I can see the light clearly, and the rose that blooms yearly restores my
faith once again
G D C
G
A rose grows in Texas, a wild rose of Texas Makes me Cry
G D C
G
The rose grows in Texas, a wild rose in Texas but damn I wish I could see
her face again.
