from the album ’the black rider’
i noticed there was’nt a version up here , so thought i’d
put up how i play it . i know it sounds a bit out and
some of the G chords can be played as G7/B chords if you
like , but worth messing around with , enjoy .

last rose of summer

C Dm G
i love the way the tattered clouds
C Am Dm G
blow wind across the sky
D7
the summer goes and leaves me
G Am D7
with a tear in my eye
C Dm G
i’m taking off my winter clothes
C Am D G
my garden knows what wrong
Dm G C Am
the petals of my favourite rose
Dm G
in shadows dark and long
C Dm G
though every year , it’s very clear
C Am Dm G
i should be carrying on
Dm G
but i can be found in the garden
C A7
singing this song
Dm G C Am
when the last rose of summer is gone
Dm G C C
the last rose of summer is gone , gone
