Verse:
AmC
The pictures tell the story, this life has many shades
GAm
Iʼd wake up every morning and before Iʼd start each day
Am
Iʼd take a drag from last nights cigarette
C
that smouldered in itʼs tray
GAmAmAm
Down a little something and then be on my way
AmC
I travelled far and wide and laid this head in many ports
GAm
I was guided by a compass, I saw beauty to the north
AmC
I drew the tales of many lives and wore the faces of my own
GDm
I had these memories all around me so I wouldnʼt be alone
Pre-chorus:
CG
Some may be from showing up, others are from growing up
DmAm
Sometimes I was so messed up and didnʼt have a clue
CG
I ainʼt winning no one over I wear it just for you
DmAm
Iʼve got your name written here in a rose tattoo
Chorus:
AmC
In a rose tattoo, in a rose tattoo
GAm
Iʼve got your name written here in a rose tattoo

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

Youʼll always have my love, our memory will live on
