Don Partridge, Rosie (1968)
Key: :[F#] (w:)
CHORUS 1:
[F#] Rosie, oh,
[G#] Rosie, I'd
[B] like
to paint your face up in the
[F#] sky
[F#] Sometimes when I'm
[G#] busy
re-
[B]-laxing, I look up and catch your
[F#] eye
BRIDGE 1:
Your
[G#m] eyes when they're
[Bb7] widening
bring
[G#m] thunder and
[Bb7] lightening
and
[G#m] sunset strokes the
[D#] colour to your
[G#m] skin
Your
[G#m] eyes are so
[Bb7] blue
I just
[G#m] think of a
[Bb7] blue sky
and
[G#m] bumble bees
[D#] buzzing on the
[G#m] wing
[C#7]
CHORUS 2:
[F#] Rosie, oh,
[G#] Rosie, it's
[B] raining
when you look the other
[F#] way
[F#] Rosie, oh,
[G#] Rosie, your
[B] laughter
brings the sunshine out to
[F#] play
INSTRUMENTAL: [over CHORUS]
BRIDGE 2:
And
[G#m] though I just
[Bb7] met you
well
[G#m] I silhou-
[Bb7]-ette you
or
[G#m] highlight golden
[D#] shadows in your
[G#m] hair
I'm
[G#m] painting your
[Bb7] mind's eye
up
[G#m] there in the
[Bb7] blue sky
[G#m] summer birds
[D#] winging through the
[G#m] air
[C#7]
CHORUS 3:
[F#] Rosie, oh,
[G#] Rosie, I
[B] paint
your face for all the world to
[F#] see
[F#] Rosie, oh,
[G#] Rosie, I'd
[B] like
to paint your face eternal-
[F#]-ly
[C#] [F#]
