VERSE 1
Am Am
The pictures tell the story
C C
This life has many shades
G G Am Am
I'd wake up every morning and before I'd start each day
Am Am
I'd take a drag from last night's cigarette
C C
That’s smoldering in it's tray
G G Am Am
Down a little something, then be on my way
Am Am
I traveled far and wide
C C
And laid this head in many ports
G G
I was guided by a compass
Am Am
I saw beauty to the north
Am Am
I drew the tales of many lives
C C
And wore the faces of my own
G G
I had these memories all around me
Dm Dm
So I wouldn't be alone


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


VERSE 2
Am Am
This one's for the mighty sea
C C
Mischief, gold and piracy
G G
This ones for the man that raised me
C C
Taught me sacrifice and bravery
Am Am
This one's for our favorite game
C C
Black and gold, we wave the flag

This one's for my family name
Dm Dm
With pride I wear it to the grave

VERSE 3
Dm Dm
This one means the most to me
C C
It stays here for eternity
G G
A A ship that always stays the course
Am Am
An anchor for my every choice
Dm Dm
A A rose that shines down from above
C C
I signed and sealed these words in blood
G G
I heard them once, sung in a song
Dm Dm
It played again and we sang along
Am Am
You'll always be there with me
C C
Even if you're gone
G G
You'll always have my love
Dm Dm
Our memory will live on

REPEAT CHORUS, THEN CONTINUE
