               E5                      A5          B5            E5    A5 E5 
well, she was standing at the load in, when the trucks rolled up 
         A5                                           E5     A5 E5 
She was sniffing all around like a half-grown female pup 
A5                                           E5               C#5 
She wasn't hard to talk to, looked like she had no where to go 
      E5                           A5           B5       E5     A5 E5 
So I gave her a pass so she could get in and see the show 
         E5                         A5         B5        E5     A5 E5 
Well, I sat her down right next to me and I got her a beer 
        A5                                               E5     A5 E5 
While I mixed that sound on the stage so the band could hear 
A5                                            E5                    C#5 
The more I watched her watch them play, the less I thought of to say 
               E5                           A5          B5     E5     A5 E5 
and when they walked offstage, the drummer swept that girl away 
 
(chorus) 
    A5           E5                    A5 
but Rosie your alright (you wear my ring) 
     A5           E5                        A5 
when you hold me tight (Rosie, that's my thing) 
      A5               E5                           C#5 
when you turn out the lights (I got to hand it to me) 
A5  (let ring)                             A5  E5    E5 B5 A5 , E5 B5 A5 
Looks like it's me and you again tonight, Rosie 
        E5                              A5                        E5    A5  E5 
Well I guess I might've known from the start, she'd come for a star 
         A5                                  E5      A5 E5 
Could've told my imagination not to run too far 
A5                                            E5                    C#5 
with all the times that I've been burned, by now you'd think I'd  learned 
          E5                 A5    B5       E5    E5 A5 
that it's who you look like, not who you are 
 
(repeat Chorus) 
 
end with... 
A5   E5  B5 A5 
Rosie          Repeat and fade out
