[Verse 1]
C
Ya, I dream about tomorrow
C
A thousand times a day
C
Though I beg and borrow
                    F
Just to get my way, and I have
                             C
I've been waiting for so long
C
Oh, you little Missy
C
How the way you shake your thing
C
You got me spun around inside
                                    F
I want you to wear my ring, my ring
                         C
I want you to wear my ring
Em               F
But I don't wanna see you cry
 C
Like you did that night
 C
Don't know how it happened
C
How they got their hooks in you
C
Didn't know the darkness would keep
                               F
The light from coming through, but it has
                  C
Now I'm a broken man, yeah
 C
Hospitals and diagrams
C
It's a godless world you know
C
My little flowers wilted
                                 F
But she still bloom like a rose, my dear
                    C
You're my Irish rose

[Chorus]
Am                     G
So take your medicine, sweet rose
Bm        F
And you'll never be alone
 Am                    D
I'll be waiting on the rock of ages
 F                 C       Am
Calling your name, rose
 C      Am    F C Bm
My rose,      my dear

[Instrumental] 
C F

[Verse 2]
 G
Lovers they have come before
 F            C
And they will come again
 G
No one's ever loved before
 F                C
The way that I've loved them
 G             F                         C
Ever, ever, forever, you're my Irish rose
You're my Irish rose
 C
Yeah, our bodies they were shaking
C
Like our souls were set aflame
C
The tears could not come fast enough
                        F
I'll never be the same, but sometimes
                          C
You just gotta let it out

[Bridge]
 Am G
So take your medicine, sweet rose
 F                  Am     G
And you'll never be alone
                       D
I'll be waiting on the rock of ages
 F                 C        Am
Calling your name, rose
