 Intro:     A      E      F#m   (3x)      C#m      E      F#m 

           
 Verse: 
A            E           F#m 
 I picked a rose this morning 
         A       E                F#m 
 And it was so fresh it looked like it was crying 
A               E           F#m 
 I thought how sad to be so beautiful 
          A          E    F#m 
 Only to wither and die 



A             E     F#m 
 Like papa's roses, soft and pale 
A               E          F#m 
 Like petals thrown in the dirt 
A        E       F#m 
 Only silence is spoken here 
                 D 
 All that grows here is hurt 
E             A    E    F#m        A    E    F#m 
 And papa's roses 



 Verse: 
A              E      F#m 
 Papa wasn't really a hardened man 
A             E        F#m 
 He could be tender at times 
A        E                F#m 
 I remember it was like a holiday 
              A          E      F#m 
 When he was gentle and kind 
A                E         F#m 
 He gave those flowers his heart and soul 
A             E             F#m 
 I wish he'd saved some for me 
A               E          F#m 
 It would have been such a simple thing  
         D     E 
 For me to be 



A             E     F#m 
 Like papa's roses, soft and pale 
A               E          F#m 
 Like petals thrown in the dirt 
A        E       F#m 
 Only silence is spoken here 
                 D            E 
 All that grows here is hurt 



 D      Bm      E      F#m      D      Bm      D      E 


 Verse: 
A              E     F#m 
 Voices that whisper soft and low 
A         E       F#m 
 Forever buried inside 
A           E      F#m 
 Haunted by images dark and cold 
          A              E      F#m 
 Forever burned in your mind 
A         E            F#m 
 But I dreamed I could fly away 
A           E      F#m 
 Like an angel I'd fly 
A       E                 F#m 
 To a place where I could forget 
          D         E 
 Forget that I was like 


A             E     F#m 
 Like papa's roses, soft and pale 
A               E          F#m 
 Like petals thrown in the dirt 
A        E       F#m 
 Only silence is spoken here 
                 D 
 All that grows here is hurt 
E             A     
 And papa's roses 
A             E     F#m 
 Like papa's roses, soft and pale 
A               E          F#m 
 Like petals thrown in the dirt 
A        E       F#m 
 Only silence is spoken here 
                 D 
 All that grows here is hurt 
E             A    E    F#m        
 And papa's roses 
         A     E     F#m 
 Papa's roses 
         A     E     F#m 
 Papa's roses
