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
Chorus:
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
Chorus:
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
Chorus:
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
