[Verse 3]
D That day in the little Mexican town of New Wavo D G A Sadly, a village laid their rose away G D Johnny came home but no Lisa was there to meet him A D D7 No arms to greet him or hold him tight G D Johnny prayed alone for God to hear it A D D7 To take his spirit away that night
[Verse 4]
G The years passed by and no one saw Johnny Fedavo G Am D The children grew and people were gay once more D One day they found him with hair snowy white D G A D The rose in his hand was his message to Lisa that night
