Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]The[F] su[C]n g[F]oes[C]
down in Calvin [F]county
Neon [G]lights from an old beer [C]sign
Shown through the window
out on [F]the sidewalk
As I walked [G]in to pass [C]the time;
I looked around, sat down at [F]a table
Ordered beef on [G]rye and a glass of [C]wine
And through the door came a little old [F]lady
She [G]was selling paper roses and
they only cost a dime.
[C]

[Verse 2]
Paper [G]Rosie, Paper [F]Rosie
[G]She sold you Paper Roses,
but they only cost a dime.
[C]

[Verse 3]
[F]Sil[C]ver hair that's lost
it[F]s' Gold
Trembling [G]hand as she passed the [C]rose
Red Crepe paper,
made nature's bou[F]quet
Help a little old [G]lady buy a [C]rose today;
I took the rose from her trembling [F]hand
With eyes of [G]age,
she smiled and walked [C]away
Like a breath of spring I
could smell [F]the rose
It came [G]alive and I heard her say.
[C]

[Verse 4]
Buy my [G]Roses, pretty [F]roses
They're [G]only made of paper
But they only cost a dime.
[C]

[Verse 5]
[F]I w[C]ent to look for her outsid[F]e
A spray of [G]roses lay by her [C]side
The sky lit up and the choir [F]sang
A thousand [G]voices as
the church bells [C]rang.
They [Am]sang

[Verse 6]
[G]Rosie (Rosie), paper
[F]Rosie (Rosie)
[G]She sold you Paper Roses
But they only cost a dime.
[C]

[Verse 7]
Paper [G]Rosie (Rosie), Paper
[F]Rosie (Rosie)
[G]She sold you paper roses

[Outro 1]
But they only cost a dim
[C]
