Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][D][D][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
[G]It is a special one, it's never seen the sun
It only comes out
when the moon is on the run
And all the stars are [D]gleaming
[A]It's growing in the street right up
through the concrete
But soft and sweet and [D]dreaming

[Verse 2]
[D]There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
[G]With eyes as black as coal
Then looks down in my soul
And starts a fire there
And then I lose control
I have to beg your [D]pardon
[A]I'm going to pick that rose
And watch her as she grows in my [D]garden

[Interlude 1]
[D][D][D][D]
[D][D][D][D]
[G][G][G][G][G]
[D][D]
[A][A][A][A]
[D][D][D][D]

[Verse 3]
[A]I'm going to pick that rose

[Outro 1]
And watch her as she grows in my
[D](garden)
La la la, la la la, la la la la
[D](There is a rose in Spanish...)
La la la, la la la, la la la la
[Repeat and fade]
