Where The Wild Roses Grow
Nick Cave, Kylie Minogue
EmAmEmDEm
EmThey call me The Wild AmRoseEm
But my Gname was Elisa BDay
Why they Emcall me it I do not AmknowEm
For my name was EDsus2lisa EmDay
EmFrom the first day I saw her I knew Gshe was the one
She Amstared in my eyes and Bsmiled
For her Emlips were the colour of the Groses
That Amgrew down the river, all Bbloody and wild
When he Emknocked on my door and Gentered the room
My Amtrembling subsided in Bhis sure embrace
He would Embe my first man, and Gwith a careful hand
He Amwiped at the tears that Bran down my face
EmThey call me The Wild AmRoseEm
But my Gname was Elisa BDay
Why they Emcall me it I do not AmknowEm
For my name was EDsus2lisa EmDay
EmOn the second day I brought her a Gflower
She was more Ambeautiful than any Bwoman I'd seen
I Emsaid, "Do you know where the Gwild roses grow
AmSo sweet and scarlet and Bfree?"
On the Emsecond day he came with a Gsingle red rose
He said "AmGive me your loss and your Bsorrow"
I Emnodded my head, as I Glay on the bed
"If I Amshow you the roses, will you Bfollow?"
EmThey call me The Wild AmRoseEm
But my Gname was Elisa BDay
Why they Emcall me it I do not AmknowEm
For my name was EDsus2lisa EmDay
EmOn the third day he took me to the Griver
He Amshowed me the roses and we Bkissed
And the Emlast thing I heard was a Gmuttered word
As Amhe knelt above me with a Brock in his fist
On the Emlast day I took her where the Gwild roses grow
And she Amlay on the bank, the wind Blight as a thief
And I Emkissed her goodbye, said, "All Gbeauty must die"
And I Amlent down and planted a Brose 'tween her teeth
They Emcall me The Wild AmRoseEm
But my Gname was Elisa BDay
Why they Emcall me that I do not AmknowEm
For my name was EDsus2lisa EmDay
My name was EDsus2lisa EmDay
For my name was Dsus2Elisa EmDay
