Capo I **
Bm    Bm
Woah, woah
Bm    Bm
Woah, woah
Em
Long way going to
Get my medicine
                                  Bm
Sky's the autumn grey of a lonely wren
Em
Piano from a window played
                          Bm
Gone tomorrow, gone yesterday
  Am                Em
(I) found it in the street
   Am              Em
At first I did not see
Am          B7
Lying at my feet
         Em
A trampled rose
Bm    Bm
Woah, woah
Bm    Bm
Woah, woah 
Em
Passing the hat in church
                      Bm
It never stops going 'round
Em
You never pay just once
               Bm
To get the job done
Am             Em
What I done to me,
Am        Em
I done to you
   Am            B7              Em
So what happened to the trampled rose?
Bm    Bm
Woah, woah
Bm    Bm
Woah, woah
Bm    Bm
Woah, woah 
Bm    Bm
Woah, woah 
Em
In the muddy street
                       Bm
With the fireworks and leaves
Em
A blind man with a cup I asked
                                  Bm
If he'd sing 'Kisses Sweeter Than Wine'
Am        Em
I know this rose
Am             Em
Like I know my name
    Am            Em
The one I gave my love,
Am         Em
It was the same
      Am             B7
Now I find it in the street,
          Em
A trampled rose
Bm    Bm
Woah, woah 
Bm    Bm
Woah, woah
