Karaoké Rose Tattoo Dropkick Murphys

The pictures tell the story this life had many shades
I'd wake up every morning and before I'd start each day
I'd take a drag from last nights cigarette that smoldered in its tray
Down a little something and then be on my way
I traveled far and wide and laid this head in many ports
I was guided by a compass
I saw beauty to the north
I drew the tales of many lives and wore the faces of my own
I had these memories all around me so I wouldn't be alone
Some may be from showing up others are from growing up
Sometimes I was so messed up and didn't have a clue
I ain't winning no one over
I wear it just for you
I've got your name written here in a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
I've got your name written here in a rose tattoo
This one's for the mighty sea mischief gold and piracy
This one's for the man that raised me taught me sacrifice and bravery
This one's for our favorite game black and gold we wave the flag
This one's for my family name with pride I wear it to the grave
Some may be from showing up others are from growing up
Sometimes I was so messed up and didn't have a clue
I ain't winning no one over
I wear it just for you
I've got your name written here in a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
I've got your name written here in a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
I've got your name written here in a rose tattoo
This one means the most to me it stays here for eternity
A ship that always stays the course
An anchor for my every choice
A rose that shines down from above
I signed and sealed these words in blood
I heard them once sung in a song
It played again and we sang along
You'll always be here with me even if you're gone
You'll always have my love our memory will live on
Some may be from showing up others are from growing up
Sometimes I was so messed up and didn't have a clue
I ain't winning no one over
I wear it just for you
I've got your name written here in a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
I've got your name written here in a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
With pride I'll wear it to the grave for you
In a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
I've got your name written here in a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
In a rose tattoo
Signed and sealed in blood
I would die for you
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
