---------------------------------------------------------------------------- One Red Rose - John Prine ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuning: Standard Artist: John Prine Album: Great Days: The John Prine Anthology Disc 2 Year: 1993 Intro: The rain came down on the tin roof Hardly a sound was left from the birthday party The kitchen light Fell asleep On the bedroom floor Me and her were talking softer Than all the time Before I lost her Picture sat on top Of the chest of drawers Chorus: One red rose in the Bible Pressed between the Holy alphabet Probably wouldn't believe me If I told you But what I never knew I never will forget Rainy nites get dark real early Her dress was soft And her hair was curly We danced around the table To the old banjo Rainy nites were made for lovers We lay there still Beneath the covers And I ain't never felt Like that before (Repeat Chorus 3x)
