Texas Rose - Song by Phil Hartman © 7/2000- written 2-â84, outside Van
Alstyne, TX
G                                 D                                      
          C 
A rose grows in Texas, a wild rose of Texas Makes me Cry.
G                                 D                                      
          C 
A five petaled flower, that grows by the treeline Makes me sigh.
G                                 D                                 C    
                    G
The dew on the petals remind me of teardrops shed at some thoughtless
refrain.
G                                 D                                 C    
                    G
And every Springtime I say Iâll take time to go see that rose bloom
again.

G                                 D                                 C    
                            G
A childhood sweetheart, returns to my mind everytime Iâm feeling some
pain
G                                 D                                 C    
                            G
I guess its just natural to find some kind refuge to keep you from going
insane
G                                 D                                 C    
                            G
But when Iâve been drinking I canât help thinkin that somehow its all
been in vain.
G                                         D                         C 
A rose grows in Texas, a wild rose of Texas                 Makes me Cry
(Lead) G D C D X2
G                                               D                        
C                                 G
You only get one chance to do your own dance then its lost to the wind
and the rain
G                                         D                              
  C                                 G
The rose only blooms once then gives up itâs flowers like a love song
begun with a lie
G                                 D                         C            
                            G
And I canât help feeling that some of you listening have seen someone
waving goodbye
G                                 D                         C            
                            G
A rose grows in Texas, a wild rose of Texas                 Makes me Sigh

G                                         D                              
  C                         G
I think of times gone by with some kind forgiveness clouds hiding pain
G                                         D                              
  C                         G
I can see the light clearly, and the rose that blooms yearly restores my
faith once again
G                    D                                       C           
                              G              
A rose grows in Texas, a wild rose of Texas                 Makes me Cry
G                         D                                            C 
                                      G
The rose grows in Texas, a wild rose in Texas but damn I wish I could see
her face again.
