[Eb]
[Db] [Ab] [Eb]
She was a flower [Db] for the taking, [Ab] her beauty cut [Eb] just like a knife.
He was a banker [Db] from Macon, [Ab] she was a lover [Eb] all his life.
Bought her a mansion [Db] on a mountain, [Ab] with a formal garden and a [Eb] lot of land.
But paradise [Db] became her prison, [Ab] that Georgia banker was a [Eb] jealous man.
[Cm] Every time he'd [Ab] talk about her, [Cm] you could see the fire [Ab] in his [Bb] eyes.
[Eb] You'd say, I would walk through [Db] hell on Sunday, [Ab] to keep my [Fm] rose in [Eb] paradise.
He hired a man to [Db] tend the garden, [Ab] but by now her body [Eb] was gone.
Some say they ran away [Ab]
together, [Db] [Ab] some say that gardener [Eb] left her alone.
Now the banker [Db] is an old man, [Ab] that mansion's crumbled [Eb] and died.
He sits all day and [Db] stares at the garden, [Ab] not a trace of her was [Eb] ever found.
[Bb] [Cm] Every time he [Ab] talks about her, [Cm] you can see the fire [Ab] in his [Bb] eyes.
[Eb] He says, I would walk through [Db] hell on Sunday, [Ab] to keep my rose in [Eb] paradise.
Now there's a rose [Db] out in the garden, [Ab] its beauty cuts just [Eb] like a [Bbm] knife.
[Eb] They say it even [Db] grows in the winter, [Ab] and blooms in the dead [Eb] of night.
