Roses for the Dead
guitar chords lyrics
Capo: 1
intro: Dm Bb C
Dm Bb C
Just to say we're sorry,
For the black eyes and bleeding lips.
Dm Bb C Dm
And it's hard to forget
How many lies we've told.
Or how old we'd grow,
Before I said goodbye.
So let's scrape our knees on the playground.
Gm D# F
It's not your fault,
You feel okay.
It's too late in the day.
It's not your fault,
You feel betrayed.
You can't come out to play.
I never listened to a word you never said.
I never listened to a word you never said.
Dm
Wasting the hours now,
We're all suckers for tragedies.
And start this over again,
And you bring us to our knees.
Dm Bb C
As sunrise comes,
And the story will sell,
A few hundred papers,
So we'll follow you up.
Gm D# F
It's not your fault,
You feel okay.
It's too late in the day.
It's not your fault,
You feel betrayed.
You can't come out to play.
I never listened to a word you never said.
I never listened to a word you never said.
Gm Bb F
So raise your hands up high,
And let this rain pour on.
So raise your hands up high,
And wash us away.
Gm F D#
Like innocence and childbirth,
You look just like your mother
And you look just like your father.
Forgive him our father,
Your son is smiling,
So lay roses around you.
