Am C
The pictures tell the story, this life has many shades
G Am
I’d wake up every morning and before I’d start each day
Am C
I’d take a drag from last nights cigarette that smoldered in it’s tray
G Dm Am
And down a little something, then be on my way
Am C
I traveled far and wide and laid this head in many ports
G Am
I was guided by a compass, I saw beauty to the north
Am C
I drew the tales of many lives and wore the faces of my own
G Dm
I had these memories all around me so I wouldn’t be alone
C G
Some may be from showing up, others are from growing up
Dm Am
Sometimes I was so messed up and didn’t have a clue
C G
I ain’t winning no one over, I wear it just for you
Dm

Am C
In a rose tattoo, in a rose tattoo
Dm G Am

This ones for the mighty sea, mischief, gold and piracy
G Am

G Dm
This ones for my family name, with pride I wear it to the grave
C G
Some may be from showing up, others are from growing up

This one means the most to me it stays here for eternity
G Am
A ship that always stays the course, an anchor for my every choice
F C
A rose that shines down from above, I signed and sealed these words in blood
G
I heard them once, sung in a song, it played again and we sang along
Am C G Am

You’ll always be here with me, even if you’re gone
