Movies Soundtracks - Kiss From A Rose guitar tab
Hi all,
Here's my attempt at Seals "Kiss from a Rose". This was transcribed from the
radio, so it was hard to tell if the proper chords were plain E, or E5, or Em.
For convenience I've just called them E unless I am otherwise sure.
Also, the lyrics are a little murky. I got these from the lyric ftp site, but
personally, I prefer the song to be about a "kiss from a rose on the grave".
Much more meaningful, huh!
Well, here goes....

VERSE 2:
There is so much a man can tell you, so much he can say
You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny
Won't you tell me is that healthy, babe?
But did you know that when it snows, my eyes become enlarged
And the light that you shine can be seen

Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey
The more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
