trampled rose chords
tom waits ( also performed by robert plant and alison krauss * )

capo i

Bm Bm
woah , woah
Bm Bm
woah , woah

Em
long way going to

get my medicine
Bm
sky’s the autumn grey of a lonely wren

Em
piano from a window played
Bm
gone tomorrow , gone yesterday

Am Em
i found it in the street
Am Em
at first i did not see
Am Em
lying at my feet
Am Em
a trampled rose

Em
passing the hat in church
Bm
it never stops going around

Em
you never pay just once
Bm
to get the job done

Am Em
what i done to you ,
Am Em
i know you done to me
Am Em Am Em
what happened to the trampled rose?

Em
in the muddy street
Bm
with the fireworks and leaves

Em
a blind man with a cup i asked
Bm
would he sing ’kisses sweeter than wine’

Am Em
i know that rose ,
Am Em
like i know my name
Am Em
the one i gave my love ,
Am Em
i said it was the same
Am Em
now i find it in the street ,
Am Em
a trampled rose

* robert plant and alison krauss same chords but no capo
