         BUY ME A ROSE   Kenny Rogers
D#                A#          G#                  A# 
He works head to give her all he thinks she wants
D#                A#             G#    A# 
Three car garage her own credit cards
     G#              A#          D#                G#
He pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss good-night
A#
If he could only read her mind she'd say
CHORUS:
   A#        D# 
1.)Buy me a rose   call me from work
2.)I need a rose
        G#
Open a door for me what would it hurt
             A#                          G#
Show me you love me by the look in your eyes
D#                     A#               G#         D#
These are the little things I need the most in my life


D#                      A#                    G#         A#
Now the days have grown Two years of feeling all alone
D#                   A#                G#         A#
She can't help but wonder what's she doing wrong
G#                  A#        D#       G# 
Lately she'd try anything to turn his head
A#
Would it make a difference if she'd said
Go to chorus using 2.)

         G#                     A#
And the more that he lives The less that he tries
    G#                     A# 
To show her that love that he holds inside
         G#                      A# 
And the more that she gives the more that he sees
 G#                        A#
This is a story of you and me
       A#          D#     
So I bought you a rose On the way home from work
             G#
To open the door to a heart that I hurt
                 A#                     G#
And I hope you noticed this look in my eyes
                 A#                                      D#
Cause I'm gonna make things right  For the rest of your life 
                   A#        G#
(The rest of your life) And I'm gonna hold you tonight
D#                    A#            G#           D#  
Do all those little things for the rest of your life.
