A D
The sun goes down in Calvin County,
E A
Neon lights from an old beer sign,
D
Shown through the window out on the sidewalk,
E A
As I walked in to pass the time;
D
I looked around, sat down at a table,
E A
Ordered beef on rye and a glass of wine
D
And through the door came a little old lady,
E A
She was selling paper roses and they only cost a dime.
Chorus:
A E S
Paper Rosie…Paper Rosie…,
E A
She sold you paper roses; but they only cost a dime.
A D
Silver hair that had lost it’s gold,
E A
Trembling hands as she passed a rose,
D
Red crepe paper made nature’s bouquet,
E A
Help a little old lady, buy a rose today;
D
I took the rose from her trembling hand,
E A
With the eyes of age, she smiled and walked away,
D
Like the breath of spring, I could smell the rose,
E A
It came alive and I heard her say.
Chorus:
A E D
Buy my roses, pretty roses,
E A
There only made of paper; but they only cost a dime
A D
I went to look for her outside,
E A
А spray of roses lay by her side,
D
The sky lit up and the choir sang,
E A
А thousand voices and the church bells rang;
A E D
They sang Rosie…Paper Rosie….
E A
She sold you paper roses but they only costs a dime
A E D
Paper Rosie…Paper Rosie…,
E A
She sold you paper roses; but they only cost a dime.
