Long Stem Rose Lyrics - Graham Parker

Pre>e c#m f#m b 

My long stem rose wont sit on the mantelpiece 

E c#m f#m b 

Shes not disposed to being one of a dozen shes 

E a 

A living thing thats bound to get tired 

B e a c#m 

She wont be content just being admired funny thats the way it goes 

C#m b e 

When youre like a long stem rose

My long stem rose were you cut down in your prime 

My love still grows for the flower I call mine 

Are you doomed to die after the spring time 

Have I just become a thorn in your side 

Funny thats the way it goes when you love a long stem rose 

Strings over verse

My long stem rose I know you wont last too long 

Youll shed your clothes your petals fall then youre gone 

In another garden growing so sweetly in an endless summer 

Forgetting about me 

wonder where you are who knows 

In another bed I suppose, lying like a long stem rose 

My long stem rose ... /pre>
