A5 (x022xx)  D  G  C

Hammer-on the C chords.
In the chorus the run leading up to the C chord goes (E3 A0 A2).

      A5 (x022xx@1)          D (xx0232@1)           G (320003@1)  C (x32010@1)  GAs (320003@1)he laid Spanish roses in her hair
         A5 (x022xx@1)          D (xx0232@1)                G (320003@1)   C (x32010@1)  GAnd (320003@1)then covered the crown of thorns she wears
          C (x32010@1)           A5 (x022xx@1)         DAnd (xx0232@1)the blood from her lips as she sings
       C (x32010@1)          A5 (x022xx@1)     DDo (xx0232@1)it all for the glory of thee

                      C (x32010@1)         GAnd (320003@1)they carried her down, down, down
             C (x32010@1)          GDown (320003@1)in the cold, cold, ground
                  C (x32010@1)     GBy (320003@1)the river she used to pray
             C (x32010@1)      G (320003@1)          D (xx0232@1)C (x32010@1)   G (320003@1)  C (x32010@1) GForever (320003@1)now she will wait for the king to come

         A5 (x022xx@1)           D (xx0232@1)                G (320003@1) C (x32010@1) GAnd (320003@1)the boys who would crave her perfect skin
      A5 (x022xx@1)                D (xx0232@1)                    G (320003@1)  C (x32010@1)  GShe (320003@1)burned herself, she thought it would please him
          C (x32010@1)        A5 (x022xx@1)              DAnd (xx0232@1)the iron chain spiked around her waist
          C (x32010@1)        A5 (x022xx@1)             DAnd (xx0232@1)the poison she used to hide her face

refrain:
And they carried her down, down, down
Down in the cold, cold, ground
By the river she used to pray
Forever now she will wait for the king to come

And she made a bed of broken glass and stone
Where she slept at night to prove her faith was strong
And when her broken body finally gave
There grew Spanish roses by her grave

And they carried her down, down, down
Down in the cold, cold, ground
By the river she used to pray
Forever now she will wait for the king to come
