Bed Of Roses

(início)

C  G  Am  G  C  G  Am  G
       C
He's a hard man to work for
      Am
If it weren't for his daughter
    F                 Am        G
His pride and joy, my secret to hide
          C
I've been breaking the horses
   Am
He bought in the Autumn
    F                               Am         G
She lights up like spring, when she watches me ride
    F                     G
The other men reckon that I've lost my mind
        C                        F
chasing something that never will be
                              G
For starters, her father, his temper is blind
         F                                   G
Besides, what would she see in a cowboy like me
C
One of these days, it'll all go my way
         Am
I'll get through before the door closes
    F        G                C   G   Am   G   C   G   Am   G
And I'll lay down in a bed of Roses
    C
Hey fella's looky here,
           Am
Who's that bloke at the homestead
F                             Am              G
Looks like he's loaded by the clothes that he wears
C                              Am
And there's the boss, he won't turn him away instead
F                   Am        G
Invites him in, and we all despair
F                           G
He's out to impress I guess everyone knows
        C                          F
The old man needs his girl to meet class
                                       G
But that kind of money none of us have any to show
          F                                G
So here I go again watchin my luck run out fast
C
One of these days, it'll all go my way
         Am
I'll get through before the door closes
    F        G                C
And I'll lay down in a bed of Roses
       F                 G
I keep tellin myself the grass'll grow greener
    C                          F
And good things will happen in time
                            G
But I'm tired of waiting, I told her I'm leaving
   F                                   G
So why is she waving with tears in her eyes
        C                      Am
In this lonely hotel room, I'd write her a letter
         F                                Am              G
But it's hard to think straight with that noise cross the street
          C                         Am
There's a dance on tonight, I might go to forget her
F                                Am   G
You never know, I might meet somebody sweet
   F                           G
Oh why did she slip through my fingers like sand,
          C                         F
cause I'm certain that she felt the same
                           G
All I need to remind me, I hold in my hand
          F                      G
Just this Rose, what a beautiful name
C
One of these days, it'll all go my way
Am7
I'll get through before the door closes
    F        G
And I'll lay down
Am       F
I'll lay down
         G                     C   G   Am   G   C   G   C
I'll lay down in a bed of roses
