D
She was hanging around a pawn shop

C 	  	 D
In Memphis, Tennessee

C 	  	 G
She was young and high strung

D
And her name was Rosalie



D
Her neck was long and slender

C 	  	 D
She said all the pearls were fine

C 	  	 G 	 
And I gave up my wedding ring

D
So I could make her mine


D
So she rode with me to Nashville

C 	  	 D
Where we joined a country band

C 	  	  	 G
Played the smoky honky tonks

D
And a thousand one night stands

D
Through the good times and the bad times

C 	     D
She kept me company

C 	  	  	 G
She made the nights less lonely

D
My sweet Rosalie



 	 C 	  G 	   D
 	 Rosalie, Rosalie, Rosalie

 	 C 	       G 	  	       D 	 
 	 No woman ever got so close to me

 	 C 	     	  	 G
 	 Although there have been others

 	 D
 	 There will never be 

 	 C 	  	   G 	       D
 	 Another one quite like my Rosalie

 	 C 	  	    G 	  	  	 D
 	 No there never be another one like my Rosalie


D
But the money wasn't good

C 	  	  	   D
Gigs were few and far between

C 	  	  	  G
Then the drummer started drinking

D
And the fidler split the scene

D
Ah but Rosie stayed beside me

C 	  	  	 D
Through the highs and through the lows

C 	  	  	 G
But i was playing in a band

D
And paying through the nose


 	 C 	  G 	   D
 	 Rosalie, Rosalie, Rosalie

 	 C 	       G 	  	       D 	 
 	 No woman ever got so close to me

 	 C 	     	  	 G
 	 Although there have been others

 	 D
 	 There will never be 

 	 C 	  	   G 	       D
 	 Another one quite like my Rosalie

 	 C 	  	    G 	  	  	 D
 	 No there never be another one like my Rosalie


D
So I left her where I found her

C 	  	 D
I went out with a gun

C 	  	  	 G
I had it half cocked and loaded

D
I went lookin for my phone

D
But I came back in the springtime

C 	  	  	 D
Like I promised her I would

C 	  	      G
But Rosalie was long gone

D
And this time gone for good


 	 C 	  G 	   D
 	 Rosalie, Rosalie, Rosalie

 	 C 	       G 	  	       D 	 
 	 No woman ever got so close to me

 	 C 	     	  	 G
 	 Although there have been others

 	 D
 	 There will never be 

 	 C 	  	   G 	       D
 	 Another one quite like my Rosalie

 	 C 	  	    G 	  	  	 D
 	 No there never be another one like my Rosalie



D
But late last Friday evening

C 	      D
I saw her on TV

C 	  	  	 G
Another guitar man was on

D
My pretty Rosalie

D
Now her neck was long and slender

C 	  	  	 D
And her body curved so fine

C 	  	  	 G
Now I weep when when I remember

D
My sweet Rosalie was mine


 	 C 	  G 	   D
 	 Rosalie, Rosalie, Rosalie

 	 C 	       G 	  	       D 	 
 	 No woman ever got so close to me

 	 C 	     	  	 G
 	 Although there have been others

 	 D
 	 There will never be 

 	 C 	  	   G 	       D
 	 Another one quite like my Rosalie

 	 C 	  	    G 	  	  	 D
 	 No there never be another one like my Rosalie


C 	   G 	    D
Rosalie, Rosalie, Rosalie

C 	   G 	    D
Rosalie, Rosalie, Rosalie

C 	   G 	    D
Rosalie, Rosalie, Rosalie
