Verse 
Dm                  C                       Dm 
  I saw you in the garden, I wanted you so much 
                                  C                              Dm 
  I really thought that you were different, oh, I couldn't get enough 
                                C                           Dm 
  I tried to save you from yourself, I felt every high and low 
                                 C                                      F 
  But the lows have drowned the highs away now there's nowhere else to go 

Pre-Chorus 
                    F                Bb               B6 
  Black rose your thorns are cutting into me for the last time 
F                                   Bb 
  Black rose I watched your petals wilt away 
               C5                 D5  A5  Bb5 
  I couldn't bring you back to life 

           C5                                D5  A5  Bb5 
  You were always where the sun could never go, 
           C5                        D5  A5  Bb5 
  I never wanted you to have to be alone 
                  C5                      D5  A5  Bb5 
  But I couldn't find a way to help you grow, 
         C5 
  Black Rose. 


Verse 
Dm                           C                                  Dm 
  You never tell me how you feel and your moods - they always change 
                             C                          Dm 
  I really tried to make it real but you never had the faith 
                       C                                Dm 
  I tried to give you something good to take the pain away 
                             C                                F 
  I tried to make you understand - you don't have to be this way 

Pre-Chorus 
                    F                Bb               B6 
  Black rose your thorns are cutting into me for the last time 
F                                   Bb 
  Black rose I watched your petals wilt away 
               C5                 D5  A5  Bb5 
  I couldn't bring you back to life 

           C5                                D5  A5  Bb5 
  You were always where the sun could never go, 
           C5                        D5  A5  Bb5 
  I never wanted you to have to be alone 
                  C5                      D5  A5  Bb5 
  But I couldn't find a way to help you grow, 
         C5

  I'm not the one who hurt you so why are you so scared 
  D5                    Bb5                       C5

          D5              Bb5                         C5 
  You'll need someone to turn to  And I will not be there 
F              C                             Dm 
  Everytime I held you I knew that it would hurt 
                    Am7/E                      F 
  Only through the pain I could find a way to learn 

Pre-Chorus 
                    F                Bb               B6 
  Black rose your thorns are cutting into me for the last time 
F                                   Bb5 
  Black rose I watched your petals wilt away 
      C5                                   D5  A5  Bb5   Bb5 C5   Bb5 C5
