Tom Waits - The Briar And The Rose guitar tab

THE BRIAR AND THE ROSE

G D7 D G

I FELL ASLEEP DOWN BY A STREAM

C D7 G

AND THERE I HAD THE STRANGEST DREAM

C Bm B C

AND DOWN BY BRENNAN'S GLEN THERE GROWS

G D7 G

A BRIAR AND A ROSE

C D7

THERE'S A TREE IN THE FOREST

C G

AND I DON'T KNOW WHERE

C G D7

I BUILT A NEST OUT OF YOUR HAIR

G D7 G C

AND CLIMBING UP INTO THE AIR

G D7 G

THE BRIAR AND THE ROSE

G D7 D G

WELL I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG IT'S BEEN

C D7 G

BUT I WAS BORN IN BRENNON'S GLEN

C Bm B C

AND NEAR THE END OF SPRING THERE GROWS

G D7 G

A BRIAR AND A ROSE

C D7 C G

I PICKED THE ROSE ONE EARLY MORN

C G D7

I PRICKED MY FINGER ON A THORN

G D7 G C

THEY'VE GROWN SO CLOSE IT'S WINDING WOVE

G D7 G

THE BRIAR 'ROUND THE ROSE

G D7 D G

I TRIED TO TEAR THEM BOTH APART

C D7 G

I FELT A BULLET IN MY HEART

C Bm B C

AND ALL DRESSED UP IN SPRINGS NEW CLOTHES

G D7 G

THE BRIAR AND THE ROSE

C G C G

AND WHEN I'M BURRIED AND IN MY GRAVE

C G D7

TELL ME SO I MAY KNOW

G D7 G C

YOUR TEARS MAY FALL TO MAKE LOVE GROW

G D7 G

THE BRIAR AND THE ROSE

I USUALLY PLAY THIS WITH SIMPLE PICKING.

THE COTTERS DO A BEAUTIFUL JOB OF THIS TUNE IN THE KEY OF "E"

BUT ALL I COULD FIGURE OUT IS THE KEY OF "G"

AND I FIND IT VERY HARD TO SING

SO IF ANYONE CAN FIGURE IT OUT IN THE KEY OF "E"

PLEASE SUBMIT IT TNX!
