Intro: G5 , D5 , G5 , D5 , G5
(Verse 1)
     A5                      B5
Now Rosie, You're losin' the spot, love; 
    C5                           G5
The light used to shine in your eye. 
     A5                          B5
Now, tell me you haven't stopped dreamin' 
     C5                           G5  
That you still reach out for the sky 
    A5                        B5
For this life, it's no bed of roses, 
     C5                          G5
It's not all it's cracked up to be 
    A5                                D5
But in the end there's always you and me... 
(Chorus) 
G5            D5
Rosie, sweet Rosie 
G5                   D5
Money don't grow on trees 
         G5                     D5
But if I thought for just one second it did 
       G5          D5      G5
I'd be down on my bended knee 

(Verse 2)
    A5                       B5
Now we'll take our tea and a lemon, 
  C5                          G5
A match that was made in the Heaven 
    A5                     B5
Two lovers that walk in on this town 
   C5                      G5
We don't need a ball or a gown.
    A5                       B5
Now tell your dear Ma not to worry, 
    C5                           G5
You won't need for nothing with me 
    A5                             D5
Now let the rivers run down to the sea. 
(Chorus)
G5            D5
Rosie, sweet Rosie, 
G5                   D5
Money don't grow on trees 
         G5                    D5
But if I thought for just one second it did 
G5                 D5      G5
I'd be down on my bended knee 
(Bridge)
    E5         D5      C5
I'm down on my bended knee, 
   E5               D5               G5
So you'd spend your whole life with me 
   A5                E5
Until the day, it'll be okay 
       D5               
You'll see, you'll see 
(Solo)

G5 , D5 , G5 , D5 , G5 , D5 , G5 , D5 2x


(Chorus)
(No instruments other than drums here)
Rosie, sweet Rosie, 

Money don't grow on trees 
         G5                    D5
But if I thought for just one second it did 
       G5          D5      G5
I'd be down on my bended knee 
         G5                    D5
But if I thought for just one second it did 
       G5          D5      G5
I'd be down on my bended knee 
             G5          D5      G5
Yeah, I'd be down on my bended knee!
