A TEARDROP ON THE ROSE

Written and recorded by Hank Williams (SR) While [C] strolling thru a lovely [G7] garden As day was drawing to a [C] close...[G7] My [C] eyes be-[C7]-held a tragic [F] story I [G7] saw a teardrop on a [C] rose.

It should have been a tear of gladness But deep inside the sorrow shows A trusting heart had just been broken I saw a teardrop on a rose.

A sobbing tear that follows parting Holds all the pain that sorrow knows A false goodbye a life is shattered There lies a story on a rose.

The tear will dry the rose will wither When spring and winter comes and goes I loved,

I lost,

my story ended
