Spanish Harlem - Ben E King Verse 1: [C] There is a rose in Spanish Harlem, A red rose up in Spanish Harlem. [F] It is a special one, it's never seen the sun, It only comes out when the moon is on the run, And all the stars are [C] gleaming. [G] It's growing in the street, Right up through the concrete But soft and [C] dreaming. Verse 2: [C] There is a rose in Spanish Harlem, A red rose up in Spanish Harlem, [F] With eyes as black as coal, That look down in my soul, And start a fire, and then I lose control, I have to beg your [C] pardon.

Instrumental + Kazoo Break: (same rhythm as verse) [C] [F] [C] [G] [C] Outro: [G] I'm gonna pick that rose, And watch her as she grows, in my [C] garden. Cha Cha cha
