The Briar And The Rose
Tom Waits
Sounds ok if you’re picking Though I know I’m missing a ton of step up and intermediate chords am going to call this the easy version and post it anyway. Don’t forget to rate it if you like it ok even if you don’t like it rate it actually if you even look at it rate it did I mention rating it? Go on flatwound THE BRIAR AND THE ROSE = 355333 = X32310 = XX0212 = X13331 I fell asleep down by the stream And there I had the strangest dream And down by Brennans Glen there grows A briar and a rose There’s a tree in the forest But I don’t know where I built a nest out of your hair And climbing up In to the air A briar and a rose I don’t know how long it has been But I was born in Brennans Glen And near the end of spring there grows A briar and a rose I picked the rose one early morn I pricked my finger on a thorn They’d grown so close Their winding wove The briar and the rose I tried to tear them both apart I felt a bullet in my heart All dressed up in springs new clothes The briar and the rose And when I’m buried And in my grave Tell me so I may know Your tears will fall To make love grow The briar and the rose And when I’m buried And in my grave Tell me so I may know Your tears will fall To make love grow The briar and the rose Your tears will fall To make love grow The briar and the rose
