Chords and lyrics for Spanish Rose by Van Morrison (key of G).

Intro

[Gmaj7] [G]

Verse 1

The wine beneath the bed
The things we've done and said
And all the memories
That come [C]glancing back to me
[G]In my loneliness
You're standing in the bridge
Beyond that stretch but our love reach
And consciousness has found [C]me sometimes [G]wondering
Where you're [D]at
Umm, take me back again
Take me back one more [G]time, Spanish rose

Verse 2

[Em] [C] [Dm] [Em] [G]
The way ya pulled the gate
Behind you when you said, It ain't too late
Come on, let's [C]swing the town and [G]have a
[D]Ball [G]tonight
And, hoping you'd come through
And many others, too
When all the friends we [C]used to have in days gone [G/B]by
I'm [Gmaj7]wondering
If [D]you'll take me back again
Take me back one more time, [G]Spanish rose

Verse 3

[C] [G] [C]
And when the lights went out there
No [G]one was about
And all the country [C]in full bloom
[G]In the room we [C]danced
And many hearts were [G]torn
And when the word went 'round
That [C]everything was wrong
And just couldn't be [D]put right, it
Tore [Bm7][D7]me up, it tore me up, [G]Lord

Verse 4

Slumber you did sleep
The window I did creep
And touch your raven [C]hair
And sang that [G]song
Again to you
You did not even wince
You thought I was the Prince
To come and take you [C]from your misery
And [G]lonely [Am][G]castle [D]walll
Uhm, take me back again
A take me back one more time, [G]Spanish Rose
