From the album 'The Black Rider'
I noticed there was'nt a version up here, so thought I'd
put up how I play it. I know it sounds a bit out and
some of the G chords can be played as G7/B chords if you
like, but worth messing around with, enjoy.

With a tear in my eye
THE LAST ROSE OF SUMMER
** OPTIONAL CAPO 1st FRET **
C Am Dm G
I love the way the tattered clouds
C Am Dm G
Blow wind across the sky
D7 D7
The summer goes and leaves me
G Am E7 D7
With a tear in my eye
C Am Dm G
I'm taking off my winter clothes
C Am D G
My garden knows what wrong
Dm G C Am
The petals of my favourite rose
Dm G
In shadows dark and long
C Am Dm G
Though every year, it's very clear
C Am Dm G
I should be carrying on
Dm G
But I can be found in the garden
C A7
Singing this song
Dm G C Am
When the last rose of summer is gone
Dm G C C
The last rose of summer is gone, gone
