DD/F#G
She watched him ride wild horses knowing that she shouldn't go
AEmAsusA
To follow around that young cowboy the one they called Rodeo
DGAsusA
You're not to be seen with the likes of him her father didn't want him around
DD/F#GG/F#EmA
For Rose was his only daughter the darling of the Downs
DD/F#G
A dance had been planned for that evening Rose cried as she left the homestead
AEmA
She could feel her heart slowly breaking from the words her father had said
DGA
She just sat by the window and listened to the travelling country band
DD/F#GG/F#EmA
When Rodeo walked 'cross the dance floor and held out his hand
GAD
May I have this dance pretty lady
GA
Forget what the others will say
DD/F#GG/F#
People might think that we're crazy
EmA
But I'd have it no other way
GAD
As long as we're always together
GA
There's one thing that only we know
DD/F#GG/F#
This love will last forever
EmAD
Rose and Rodeo
G - A - D - G - A - D - D/F# - G - G/F# - Em - A - D
Now it's been many year's since that evening that old hall's not used anymore
Except for an old man who's walking 'cross that old dusty wooden dance floor
The children all laugh through the window the danceband's not there to be heard
But her eyes light up as he holds out his hand she still remembers those words
Chorus
DD/F#GG/F#
Their love will last forever
EmAD
Rose and Rodeo
