Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:Eb
Capo:1st fret

[Verse 1]
D                     G
We all were called to come back
       D
To the old home on the farm
A                     D
Mother's passed away, what a mournful day
    D           G
And as my daddy watched
              D
His eyes were filled with pain and hurt
     E7
When someone stepped upon a rose
    A
And crushed it in the dirt
 
 
[Chorus]
       D               G            D
Don't step on Mother's roses, Daddy cried
    A                               D  D7
She planted them the day she was my bride
    G                          D
And every time I see a rose, I see her smiling face
    E7
She made my darkest days look bright
 A                  A7
Around the old home place
      D                G               D
Don't step on Mother's roses, let them grow
    A                              D  D7
The way they did since many years ago
     G
They will bloom for me each year
    D
And I will have Mother near
      E7               A               D
Don't step on Mother's roses, let them grow
 
 
[Verse 2]
D                  G
Years have passed away
            D
And how the old home place has changed
A                   D
Daddy had to go, we all miss him so
A                 G             D
Children pick the roses as they go along the way
    E7                             A             A7
But when their petals are abused I hear my daddy say
 
 
[Chorus]
       D               G            D
Don't step on Mother's roses, Daddy cried
    A                               D  D7
She planted them the day she was my bride
    G                          D
And every time I see a rose, I see her smiling face
    E7
She made my darkest days look bright
 A                  A7
Around the old home place
      D                G               D
Don't step on Mother's roses, let them grow
    A                              D  D7
The way they did since many years ago
     G
They will bloom for me each year
    D
And I will have Mother near
      E7               A               D  G  D
Don't step on Mother's roses, let them grow
