Verse 1:
                    E         Abm
Darling, I've been trying to hold you down
           Dbm                                A
Though the fear within my heart still lingers round
           E           Abm
Darling I am hoping to see your face
Dbm                       A
  Every Sunday morning my embrace
 
Pre-chorus:
               A                                     B
And though the fear within my heart still drives me over the edge
      Ab                  A
It is you that I want to hold me in bed
                A                          B
And should the sun shine tomorrow I'll be holding my head
Dbm                                  A
  Cause I'll be hoping for raindrops instead
 
Chorus:
      E                 Abm
Fresh roses in my garden need the rain
       Dbm                           A
I've been hoping for clouds, but the sun remains
      E                 Abm
Fresh roses in my garden need the rain
       Dbm                       A
Heaven sent me your love, but it keeps me chained
 
Verse 2:
           E                    Abm
Darling I was searching for the light within
          Dbm                 A
When you came on in placed my world in a spin
      E           Abm
I was aching when you came around
Dbm                            A
 Funny how things work, how my world was upside down
 
Pre-chorus:
               A                                    B

It is you that I want to hold me in bed
               A                          B
And should the sun shine tomorrow I'll be holding my head
Dbm                                 A
 Cause I'll be hoping for raindrops instead

      E                  Abm
Fresh roses in my garden need the rain
          Dbm                        A

Heaven sent me your love, but it keeps me chained

E                         Abm
I'll bide my time and i will wait
Dbm               A
Patiently for the day
         E                      Abm
When the cloud are dark and the skies are red
Dbm                    A
To feel your love over me
 
Chorus:
      E                  Abm
Fresh roses in my garden need the rain
          Dbm                        A
I've been hoping for clouds, but the sun remains
      E                  Abm
Fresh roses in my garden need the rain
       Dbm                       A
Heaven sent me your love, but it keeps me chained
