Call Me Rose

    F                G            
My name was Richard Nixon only now
        C
 I'm a girl
    F                G            
You wouldn't know it but I used to
        C
 be the king of the world
    F                G            
Compared to last time I look like 
        C
I've hit the skids
F                              G
Living in the projects with my two 
little kids
F                           C
It's not what I would have chosen
G                       C
Now you have to call me Rose


[Verse 2]
 F                G               
I was the boss of bosses the last 
     C
time around
 F          G                 
I lived by cunning and ambition 
    C
unbound
 F                G               
The suckers said they'd stand 
     C
behind me right or wrong
   F                               
As if they thought that hubris was 
      G
the mark of the strong

 F                C
I was an arrogant man
 F                C
But now I've got it in hand
 F                      C
It’s not what I would have chosen
 G                      C
Now you have to call me Rose


[Chorus]
F        C
Call me Rose
F        C
Call me Rose
F                          C
It’s not what I would have chosen
G                        C
Now you have to call me Rose


[Verse 3]
F                      G         
My name was Richard Nixon only 
         C
now I'm a girl
F                      G         
You wouldn't know it but I used 
         C
to be the king of the world
F                      G         
I'm back here learning what it is
         C
 to be poor
F                          C     
To have no power but the strength
      G
 to endure


[Chorus]
F                   C
I'll perform my penance well
F                   C
Maybe the memoir will sell
F                          C
It's not what I would have chosen
G                        C
Now you have to call me Rose
 G                       C
Now you have to call me Rose
