Six Wild Roses

Six Wild Roses
(Norman Schell)
            G
There were six wild roses
               C
On the hill where we lived
     G                  D7
Up the road from an old twisted pine
             G
And on the hill was a mansion
                   C
Where we both loved to roam
G             D7      G
Back in our summertime.

There were snowy walks, there were quiet talks
And these memories still make me sad
'cause I remember the good times, every one
While she remembers the bad.

(Chorus)
             C
And other memories
            G
That we'll always share
               D7
And all that we once had
       G                      C
I remember the good times, every one
     G    D7            G
While she remembers the bad.


There was one wild heart on the hill where we lived
Up the road from the mill and the town
One restless beau who could never be still
'til he tore all the memories down

Of the snowy walks and the quiet talks
These memories still make me sad
'cause I remember the good times, every one
While she remembers the bad.
