Where The White Rose Meets The Red ukulele

Where The White Rose Meets The Red

• Am

I'm unsure of the lyrics to the bridge section, and would appreciate any 
suggestions as I'm interested in perfecting this song.

The chord names did not actually line up well in the version produced despite my 
lining them up correctly. Listening to the song should help with chord changes.


Intro
Am    E7     F    E7    Dm   E7   Am

Verse:
Am                 E7                F                    C
I will meet you there, said the woman to the traveler.
         E7            Am       Dm      F    E7
I'm risking everything for you.
        Am             E7                    F                          C
My father is unkind, and my mother, she will laugh at me
            E7                  Am                G                             C
If she knew the dreams I chase. This is one chance I will take.
           F                           G                           Am
I will meet you where the white rose meets the red.


Interlude:
Am    E7   F   C   Dm   E7   Am

     Am                  E7                 F                    C
I'll wait up on the hill, says the woman to the traveler.
 E7                Am                    Dm      F    E7
I do not doubt that you'll be there.
     Am                         E7                  F              C
My heart is full of dreams. I have waited for a man like you
            E7              Am       G                             C
To take me far away and love me come what may.
           F                                G                           Am
I will meet you where the white rose meets the red.


Am             D
Now I've drowned
          C         
She waited there
                E         A                D    
He will come. I believe he must.
A  D      E        A              D     
I have chosen. In him I trust.
 A      D     E                     A               D
And she turned to the watching moon
                                           E
And dreamed of love

        Am                  E7                     F                    C
I'm growing very cold, said the woman to the moon that night.
          E7            Am              Dm      F    E7
The moor is wide and I'm alone.
 Am                         E7                  F                        C
He held me in his arms, and you cannot doubt a thing like that.
          E7                   Am         G                   C
The hope he gave to me you cannot take away.
   F                                G                           Am
I will meet him where the white rose meets the red.

Am             D
Oh, after dawn
              C
She found her there.
             E         A                D
He will come, I believe he must.
A  D       E         A            D 
I have chosen. In him I trust.
   A   D     E                 A              D
And the moment that her heart failed
                              E
The traveler came.


Am                         E7                  F              C
I knew I'd meet you here, said the woman to the traveler.
          E7                         Am                   G                         C
As they turned into the night and they traveled side by side.
                 F                          G                           Am
From the hilltop where the white rose meets the red.


Am    E7     F    E7    Dm   E7  Dm  F   E7   Am
