Mother Rose Tab

by Patti Smith


Here’s a beautiful song from Patti Smith’s album Naked, tabbed carefully. Enjoy it!
Mother Rose by PATTI SMITH
(Smith/Shanahan)
						
Mother rose Every little morn’To tend to me 
						
There she stood waiting by the door Selflessly
						
Took my hand Took it with a smile tenderly
						
Mother rose Every little morn’ To tend to me

CHORUS
		 		
 Now's the time to turn the view 
	            
Now that I have you

						
And I'll rise Every little morn' To tend to thee 
						
When you rise Open up your eyes You will see
						
There I'll be Waiting by the door Come to me 
						
Take my hand Look into your heart There I'll be

CHORUS
		 		
Now's the time To turn the view
	 	    
Now that I have you
		 		
Now's the time To turn the view
      	    
Now that I have you

OUTRO: (7th fret)              (2d fret)
(The bass plays a F# on the fourth chord)

Roses growing by my door Climbing up the vine
All the thorns and pain obscured Roses shall divine
Where we feel no pain And the love inside
Where roses climb Roses shall divine
Roses shall divine Holy mother
Mother of gold Mother with stories
Told and retold She felt our tears
Heard our sighs And turned to gold
Before our eyes She rose into the light
She rose into the light She rose into the light
