"Buy Me A Rose"

Capo 1

Verse 1:
                                                 
He works hard to give her all he thinks she wants
                                            
Three car garage, her own credit cards
                                             
He pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss goodnight
                                   
If he could only read her mind she'd say


Chorus:
                          
Buy me a rose, call me from work
                                
Open a door for me what would it hurt
                                        
Show me you love me by that look in your eye
                                                
These are the little things I need the most in my life


Verse 2:
                                                 
Now the days have grown to years of feeling all alone
                                            
She can't help but wonder what she's doing wrong
                                             
Lately she'd try anything to turn his head
                                   
Would it make a difference if she'd said

Chorus

Bridge/Verse 3:
                                	 
And the more that he lives, the less that he tries
                         
To show her the love that he holds inside
                                
And the more that she gives, the more that he sees
                          
This is a story of you and me
                                          
So I bought you a rose on the way home from work
                                  
To open the door to a heart that I hurt
                                       
And I hope you noticed this look in my eye
                                                     
Cause I'm gonna make things right for the rest of your life
                
The rest of your life
    
And I'm gonna hold you tonight
                                               
Do all those little things for the rest of your life
