A Seed Before The Rose
A Seed Before The Rose
by Tommy Overstreet
GCD7G
We were both so young and impatient at the time
CA7
We thought we were in love so we closed our minds
D7G
When they told us
CD7G
Love is like a roseit doesn't just appear
CA7
Give it time to growor it ends with tears
D7GCD7G
There's gotta be a seedbefore the rose
CAmB7EM
Tender loving care makes it sweeter as it grows
CD7GCG
There's gotta be love before the tie is bound
CAmB7C
Or the rose will end with petals on the ground
GCD7G
But we paid no mind to the things that we had been told
CA7
And we pledged our love with a band of gold
D7
On our fingers
GCD7G
Now when I look backall that I can see
CA7
Is heartache and regret and it's clear to me
D7GCD7G
There's gotta be a seedbefore the rose
