Verse:
    G#m                            B
The pictures tell the story, this life has many shades
    F#                           G#m
Iʼd wake up every morning and before Iʼd start each day
           G#m
Iʼd take a drag from last nights cigarette
      B
that smouldered in itʼs tray
F#                           G#m             G#m G#m
Down a little something and then be on my way

  G#m                                   B
I travelled far and wide and laid this head in many ports
      F#                          G#m
I was guided by a compass, I saw beauty to the north
           G#m                               B
I drew the tales of many lives and wore the faces of my own
            F#                           C#m
I had these memories all around me so I wouldnʼt be alone

Pre-chorus:
B                            F#
Some may be from showing up, others are from growing up
C#m                               G#m
Sometimes I was so messed up and didnʼt have a clue
        B                     F#
I ainʼt winning no one over I wear it just for you
              C#m                     G#m
Iʼve got your name written here in a rose tattoo

Chorus:
     G#m                B
In a rose tattoo, in a rose tattoo
              F#                      G#m
Iʼve got your name written here in a rose tattoo

G#m                            B
This ones for the mighty sea, mischief, gold and piracy
F#                                    G#m
This ones for the man that raised me taught me sacrifice
G#m
and bravery
G#m                               B
This ones for our favourite game black and gold, we wave the flag
F#                                 C#m
This ones for my family name with pride I wear it to the grave

I ainʼt winning no one over I wear it just for you

Bridge:
E                               B
This one means the most to me, stays here for eternity
  F#                                     G#m
A ship that always stays the course, an anchor
G#m
for my every choice
  E                                   B
A rose that shines down from above, I signed
B
and sealed these words in blood
  F#                                   F#
I heard them once, sung in a song, it played again
F#
and we sang along

G#m B F# G#m

        G#m                     B
Youʼll always be there with me even if youʼre gone

Youʼll always have my love, our memory will live on

B                            F#
Some may be from showing up, others are from growing up
C#m                               G#m
Sometimes I was so messed up and didnʼt have a clue
        B                     F#
I ainʼt winning no one over I wear it just for you
              F#                      G#m
Iʼve got your name written here in a rose tattoo
