A red rose up in Spanish Harlem.

VERSE (top lyrics 1st time, bottom lyrics 2nd time)

-8   7    -6 -8    7    -6
It   is   a- spe---cial one,
With eyes as black as   coal,

-8   7    -6   -8   7   -6
Its  ne---ver  seen the sun,
That look down in   my  soul,

-8  7     -6 -8    7   -6    -8  7    -6 -8    7   -6
It  on----ly comes out when  the moon is on    the run
And start a- fi----re  there and then I  loose con-trol,

-8  7    -6  7     4    5   6
And all  the stars are  gleaming.
I   have to  beg   your par-don.

Its growing in the  street right up (1st TIME)
Im  go--ing to pick that   rose and (END)

1st TIME

-5      5   6  -5
through the concrete

5   -5   5   6     3   -3bb 4
but soft and sweet and drea-ming. (CHORUS)

END

5     -5  5  6   -5
Watch her as she grows

6  3  -3bb 4
In my gar--den.
