Rose Tattoo
(Dropkick Murphys)
As recorded by the Dropkick Murphys, from the album Signed and Sealed in Blood (2013)

[Intro]

Am C G Am

[Verses]
[Subsequent verses are similar]

Am
The pictures tell the story
C
This life has many shades
G Am
I’d wake up every morning and before I’d start each day
Am
I’d take a drag from last nights cigarette
C
That smoldered in it’s tray
G Dm Am
Down a little something and then be on my way

Am
I traveled far and wide
C
And laid this head in many ports
G
I was guided by a compass
Am
I saw beauty to the north
Am
I drew the tales of many lives
C
And wore the faces of my own
G
I had these memories all around me
Dm
So I wouldn’t be alone

[Pre-chorus]

C
Some may be from showing up
G
Others are from growing up
Dm Am
Sometimes I was so messed up and didn’t have a clue
C
I ain’t winning no one over
G
I wear it just for you
Dm
I’ve got your name written here

In a rose tattoo

[Chorus]

Am
In a rose tattoo
C
In a rose tattoo
Dm
I’ve got your name written here
G Am
In a rose tattoo

G
In a rose tattoo
Dm Am
Signed and sealed in blood I would die for you
