The first time I saw her

Overnight love started blooming

Like the first rose of spring

Auburn hair like a sunrise
D A
Sweetest smile he'd ever seen
D A
Butterflies, they danced around her

Like the first rose of spring

Summertime would've never started

To things he'd never dream

Without the first rose of spring

CHORUS:
B7 E7
Gave him children like a garden
B7 E7
They gave 'em all the love they'd need

To grow up strong, she made a home
A D
And every year, he'd bring
A E7 A A
Her the first rose of spring
VERSE:
A E7 A
The last time he saw her
D A
He knew everything had changed
D
He said goodbye
A D
And let the tears fall like rain
A E7 A D A D A
On the first rose of spring
