The Rose Is For Today

E   Bm7 E7 A

[Verse 1]
N.C.               A                
            E
I surprised her at work today and 
brought her a red rose
And for an hour we slipped away and 
          A
had lunch just for two
     E              A          
No I didn't get the job today so 
                              D
that new dress will have to wait
And though she planned to wear it 
E      E7
Sunday
                         A
She just smiled and said OK

[Chorus]
N.C.                  A             
                 E      E7
She knows the rose is for today - 
but my love is for always

                  E          E7   
And a rose is all I can give - 
               A
till better times come our way
               E        A         
She knows I'll still be needing 
                     D
her long after all the petals fade
            E         E7          
The rose is for today - but my 
         A       F# E  E  E7   A
love is for always

[Verse 2]
N.C.                        A
When we're home and the day is done
                              E    
She holds me close 'cause she knows
          E7
 I'm down
                        E       
Talking low and letting feelings 
      E7
show
                        A
She says my love is all that counts
             F#      E  A
But I want a mansion to shelter her
                           D
And babe we'll have it all someday
                       E           
And for every petal on that red 
  E7                   A
rose - I promise you a bouquet

[Chorus]
N.C.                  A             
                 E      E7
She knows the rose is for today - 
but my love is for always
                  E          E7   
And a rose is all I can give - 
               A
till better times come our way
               E        A         
She knows I'll still be needing 
                     D
her long after all the petals fade
            E         E7          
The rose is for today - but my 
         A
love is for always
                      E         E7
She knows the rose is for today - 
                   D      C# B  A
but my love is for always
