A Teardrop on a Rose
by Hank Williams
C G7
While strolling through a lovely garden
C G7
As day was drawing to a close
C C7 F
My eyes beheld a tragic story
G7 C
I saw a teardrop on a rose
G7
It should have been a tear of gladness
C G7
But deep inside the sorrow shows
C C7 F
A trusting heart had just been broken
G7 C
I saw a teardrop on a rose
G7
A sobbing tear that follows parting
C G7
Holds all the pain that sorrow knows
C C7 F
A trusting heart had just been shattered
G7 C
There lies a story on a rose
G7
The tear will dry the rose will wither
C G7
When spring and winter comes and goes
C C7 F
I loved I lost my story ended
G7 C
With just a teardrop on a rose
