The Little Red Rose Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
You [D]put the seeds in the ground
And you spread the dirt around
Sprinkle water till it's coming up [Eb]rosey
[Gm]Then you [G]give a happy [D]shout
When you see a little sprout
And [Fm]you smell it [D]with your
[Eb]little [D]round [Fm]nosey
That's how you grow a
[D]little red ro- ro- rose
[Eb]So you

[Verse 2]
get an [D]idea
And you see it quite clear
It's as clear as a little white [Eb]pony
Well [D]you can [Fm]ride it down [Eb]the trail
And it's feet will [D]never fail
Give it [Fm]love, give it water,
[D]give it bar[Fm]ley
And tend it like a little [D]red ro- ro- [Eb]rose

[Verse 3]
You [D]could spread the seeds of peace
To the north, to the east
To the south, to the west
To [Eb]all the polesies
You could [D]take apart the bombs
[G]You could plant them [D]on the farms
Make a garden out of what- do- you-
[Eb]supp[Fm]osey?
And tend it like a little [D]red [Eb]ro- [D]ro- rose

[Verse 4]
If we'd [D]all spread lovin'
Not pushin', not shovin'
Treat each other like that love was [Eb]holy
[D]No guns and bombs and [G]wars[D]
Would be [Fm]pointed at our [Eb]doors
[D]And we'd live [Fm]in the
garden [D]all [Eb]cozy[Fm]
And tend it like a [D]little red ro- ro- rose

[Verse 5]
You put [D]the seeds in the ground
And [Eb]you spread the dirt [D]around
Sprinkle water [Eb]till it's [D]coming
[Eb]up rosies
Then you [D]give a happy shout
When [Fm]you see a [D]little sprout
And you smell it with your [Eb]little [D]round no[Fm]sey
[D]That's how[Fm] you grow a litt[D]le red rose
That's how you [Em]grow a [D]little red rose
That's [D]how you grow a
little red [Eb]ro- ro- [D]rose
