Chords for The Rose - Bette Midler

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Some say _ _ love, _ [C] it [Em] is a river _ _ _ _ [Fm] that _ _ drowns [Eb] the [C] tender _ _ reed.
_ Some say _ love, _ it [Em] is a razor _ _ _ _
[Fm] that _ _ _ leaves your [C] soul to bleed.
_ _ Some say [Em] _ _ love, _ it is a [G] hunger, _ _ _ _
[F] an _ endless _ _ _ aching _ _ _ need. _
I [C] say love, _ _ _ _ it is a [G] flower _ _
_ _ [Dm] and you, _ _
[G] its only [C] _ seed. _ _
_ _ [C] _ Its _ _ _ _ the _ _ heart _ afraid [G] of breaking _ _ _ _ [F] that never _ _ _ [G] _
learns [C] to dare. _ _
Its the dream _ _ _ _ afraid [G] of waking _ _ [F] that never _ _ _ takes [C] the chance.
_ _ Its the [Bm] _ one _ _ who [Am] won't be _ _ taken _ who [F] cannot _ _ _ seem [G] to _ give.
_ _ _ Its the [C] soul _ _ _ afraid of dying _ _ _ that [F]
never _ _ _ _ [G] learns [C] to _ live. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ When the night's _ _ _ _ been too [G] lonely _ _ _ and the [F] road has _ been [C] too long. _
_ Then to think _ that love is [G] only _ _ for [F] the lucky _ _ [G]
and [C] the strong. _ _
Just [Em] remember _ _ _ _ _
[Am] _ winter _ _ _ far [D] beneath _ [Dm] _ [F] _ the [G] bitter snow.
_ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
[C] The seed _ _ that [G] with the sun's love _ [F] in the spring _ _ _ _ [G]
becomes [C] the rose. _ _ _
