Intro 1

Verse 1
D 
I'm telling you these
G 
A 
things that I tell no one else
G 
When I'm all alone
A 
When I'm by myself
D 
G 
And I believe you hear me
D 
A 
though I have no proof
G 
It's what I feel inside
A 
D 
That's telling me the truth
G 
Bm 
A 
If I listen and I cannot hear the music
D 
G 
If I try to swim the ocean and
Bm 
A 
cannot reach the shore
D 
G 
If the world is offered love
Bm 
A 
but doesn't use it
D 
G 
A 
Oh Rosetta, what's it for?

Verse 2
D 
G 
D 
May I call you sister when
A 
we talk this way?
G 
You make me feel as if there's
A 
nothing I can't say
D 
G 
I  know I'm not the first one
A 
you've brought comfort to
G 
A 
D 
And I'm not the last that will look to you
G 
Bm 
A 
If I wander and I cannot find the reason
D 
G 
If I keep my heart wide open
Bm 
A 
and can not feel the sun
D 
G 
And I'm not sure anymore
Bm 
A 
what I believe in
D 
G 
Oh Rosetta, am I the only one?

F#m

Verse 3
D 
G 
One day I am walking down
A 
a lonely street
G 
New York City's cold,
A 
there is no one to meet
D 
G 
And at the corner of 57th and
D 
A 
7th Avenue
G 
A 
D 
I hear someone sing and I know it's you
G 
Bm 
A 
If I'm still and I cannot hear the choirs
D 
G 
If I try to please the many
Bm 
A 
instead of just the very few
D 
G 
Can you hear me through
Bm 
A 
invisible wires?
D 
G 
Oh Rosetta, what should I do?

Verse 4
G 
Bm 
A 
If I listen and I cannot hear the music
D 
G 
If I swim against the current
Bm 
A 
and lose sight of the shore
D 
G 
If the world is offered goodness
Bm 
A 
but doesn't use it
D 
G 
Oh Rosetta, what's it for?
