They call me The Wild Rose
Bb D
but my name was Elisa Day
Gm Cm Gm
Why they call me it I do not know
Gm F Gm
For my name was Elisa Day
Gm Bb
From the first day I saw her I knew she was the one
Cm D
As she stared in my eyes and smiled
Gm Bb
For her lips were the colour of roses
Cm D
That grew down the river, all bloody and wild
Gm Bb
When he knocked on my door and entered the room
Cm D
My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
Gm Bb
He would be my first man, and with a careful hand
Cm D
He wiped at the tears that run down my face
Gm Cm Gm
They call me The Wild Rose

On the second day I brought her a flower
Cm D
She was more beautiful than any woman I´d seen
Gm Bb
I said,"Do you know where the wild roses grow
Cm D
So sweet and scarlet and free?"
Gm Bb
On the second day he came with a single red rose
Cm D
Said "Will you give me your loss and your sorrow?"
Gm Bb
I nodded my head, as I lay on the bed
Cm D
He said,"If i show the roses will you follow?"

On the third day he took me to the river
Cm D
He showed me the roses and we kissed
Gm Bb
And the last thing I heard was a muttered word
Cm D
As he stood smiling above me with a rock in his fist
Gm Bb
On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
Cm D
As she lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief
Gm Bb
As I kissed her goodbye, I said,"All beaty must die"
Cm D
And lent down and planted a rose between her teeth
Gm Cm Gm
They call me The Wild Rose
Bb D

Why they call me it I do not know
