White Rose By Fred Eaglesmith capo 2nd fret C Am Em F (x2)
Well the wChole town came out to watch the Amday they paved the parking lot SomeEmbody hung a ribbon up and Fthen they cut it down F
And that Cbig white rose upon that sign put Aminnocence in all our lives EmWe could see its neon lights Fhalf a mile out F
Gas was Cfifty cents a gallon They Amput it in for you And they'd Empump your tires and check your oil and Fwash your windows too F
And we'd Cshine those cars bright as bright And we'd Amgo park underneath that light EmStare out at the prarie sky There was Fnothing else to do F
Chorus:
But now there's Amplywood for glass where the Emwindows all got smashed And there's Fjust a chuck of concrete where those Gold pumps used to stand There's a Amcouple of cars half outta the ground And that Emoil sign still spins 'round and 'round But FI guess the White Rose filling station's just a Gmemory Amnow
And the Cgirls would spend a couple a bucks just to Ammeet the boys workin' at the pumps And Emthey'd grow up and fall in love And Fthey all moved away F
CStrangers used to stop and ask how Amfar they'd driven off the map And Emthen they built that overpass And now they Fstay out on the highway F
(Repeat Chorus)
And that Fneon sign was the heart and soul of Amthis old one horse town And it's Glike it lost its will to live the Fday they shut it down
(Repeat Chorus) (Repeat last line of chorus)
