[B] I think I see his camera right there.
[Em]
I know he's right there.
I saw a camera.
[B] There he is.
He wanted to hear this one.
[Bm] This is an original song.
[A] Mr.
Jason Teal wrote this.
_ _ Yeah, he brought her a rose.
_ He said, you gotta sing a song.
I brought you the rose.
That's what the song's about.
Bring [Am] me a rose.
I brought your rose.
Sing me the song. _ _ _
[B] This is an original song.
Mr.
Jason Teal came up with this when he found a journal entry in his grandfather's journal after his
grandfather was passed on and gone. _
And he used some of his lyrics and made it into a song.
I think that's beautiful.
And the line that he found was, I'd rather have a rose from [Cm] the garden of a [G] friend
than tears shed around my bones when my days here end.
What a profound line.
My grandmother said it's a little [C#] more simple the way she said it.
She said, give me the flowers while [Bm] I'm living.
_ That was the way [B] she'd say it.
You guys get the point.
It's a beautiful song.
It's a beautiful message.
We're gonna try it. _ _ _ _

I'd rather have a rose [E] from the garden of a friend _ [B] _
than tears shed around my bones when my [F#m] days here end. _ _ _
And [B] I'd rather see a smile for [E] one I know is true than [B] _
sadness and sorrow when this world will [F#] not pay [B] the due.
_ _ So bring [E] me a rose, _ _ pink, [G#m] white, or red.
_ _ [B] _ And I'd rather _ have one now than [F#] a trough blow when [B] I'm dead. _ _ _
So bring me [E] a rose, _ _ _ [B] pink, white, or red.
_ _ And I'd rather have one now than [F#m] a trough blow [B] when I'm dead. _ _ _
_ I'd _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ rather hear my sweet love [E]
singing sweet love songs [B] than staring out the window _ _ at [G#m] her [F#] lovely _ bones. _
_ _ _ [B] _ Waiting for something _ [E]
to wrap up in nothing.
_ [B] _ Wasting time going blind, never to be heard. _ _
_ So [E] bring me a _ rose, _ pink, [B]
white, or red. _ _
And I'd rather have one now _ [F#] than a trough blow [G#m] when I'm dead. _ _

someone close to me _ [B] _ spending time today right now for _ [F#] eternity. _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _
Father time, oh father [E] time, know it comes and goes.
_ [B] So do the things you want today [F#m] for it's time to [B] go. _
So _ [E] bring me a rose, _ _ _ pink, [B]
white, or red. _ _ _
And I'd rather have one now than [F#] a trough blow when [B] I'm dead. _ _

_ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ What's that?
Write a mail.
Make sure I'm not something.
_ _ We had a request here earlier.
_ _ _ Stingrass Window played it, but we're going to play it too because we got a request from Teal out [B] there and it's not me.
So I want to say it before they thought I was requesting it. _ _ _
Teal wanted, that's a weird saying I've never heard [F#] anybody else named Teal.
Teal wanted to hear [B] Rocky Top.
Alright!
She said, well if y'all don't play it, she said if y'all don't play it because the other band did, that's okay.
We're going to go ahead and do it anyway.
_ _ Yeah! _ _
_ Well _ _ _ done! _ _ _ _
5, 4, 3, 2, [Fm] 1.

Rocky Top you'll [F#m] always be [E] home sweet home to _ me.
Good old [B] _ _
_ _ Rocky Top, Tennessee.
_ _ Rocky Top, Tennessee.
_ _ What's two [C#] straights [G#m] lined on that top of [B] the Long Blue Shot sail? _ _
Strangers ain't come down from Africa and they never will.
_ Horn won't corrode with all on that top, there's two back it by far.
_ That's why I [E] won't [G#m] call Rocky Top and bear a corn from the jar. _
Rocky _ Top you'll always be [A] home [E] sweet home to _ me.
Good [B] old _ _ _ Rocky Top, Tennessee.

_ All I [E] know is in [G#m] the fields I can't be [B]
simple again.
