GWe were both so Cyoung D7and impatient at the Gtime
We thought we were in Clove so we A7closed our minds
D7When they told Gus
Love is like a Crose  D7it doesn't just Gappear
Give it time to Cgrow  or it A7ends with tears
D7There's gotta be a Gse-Ced  D7before the Grose
CTender loving Amcare B7makes it sweeter as it EMgrows
CThere's D7gotta be Gl-oCve D7before the tie is Gbound
COr the rose will Amend B7with petals on the Cground
GBut we paid no Cmind D7to the things that we had been Gtold
And we pledged our Clove with a A7band of gold
D7On our fingers
GNow when I look Cback  D7all that I can Gsee
Is heartache and reCgret and it's A7clear to me
D7There's gotta be a Gse-Ced  D7before the Grose
CTender loving Amcare B7makes it sweeter as it EMgrows
CThere's D7gotta be Gl-oCve D7before the tie is Gbound
COr the rose will Amend B7with petals on the Cground
D7There's gotta be a Gse-Ced  D7before the Grose
CTender loving Amcare B7makes it sweeter as it EMgrows
CThere's D7gotta be Gl-oCve D7before the tie is Gbound
COr the rose will Amend B7with petals on the Cground
D7There's gotta be a Gse-Ced  D7before the Grose
