Austin Collins - Roses Are Black


Intro: Cadd9Cadd9 G+G E minor 7Em7 D MajorD Cadd9Cadd9 G+G D MajorD


Cadd9Cadd9     G+G    E minor 7Em7      D MajorD
Laughs in the mirror, cries now and then
Cadd9Cadd9     G+G      D MajorD
Ten miles from home in the rain
Cadd9Cadd9     G+G      E minor 7Em7     D MajorD
She'd like to call him but he's always gone
   Ca99    G+G       D MajorD
He's fallen for something and not someone

Cadd9Cadd9      G+G    E minor 7Em7    D MajorD
Dreams are like driving, hope is surreal
Cadd9Cadd9     G+G       D MajorD
Each time they kiss she knows just how he feels
     Cadd9Cadd9       G+G       E minor 7Em7     D MajorD
Not even close to what she wanted, reciprocation's forgone
  Cadd9Cadd9      G+G       D MajorD
And she's left with sounds on the road


Chorus:
E minor 7Em7    G+G
Roses are black
Cadd9Cadd9   D MajorD     E minor 7Em7     G+G     D MajorD
Loving is dying for someone who doesn't deserve
E minor 7Em7     G+G
Finders are keepers
  Cadd9Cadd9    D MajorD      E minor 7Em7  Em/F# G+G
But losing would bring her to you
       E minor 7Em7 Em/F#  G+G
Bring her to you


Addicted to comfort with a heart that's been hewn
While the noise from the TV fights its way through her room
It's what quitting is to cancer you've got answers in spades
But you go with what's easy 'cause it makes you feel safe


Chorus:
E minor 7Em7    G+G
Roses are black
Cadd9Cadd9   D MajorD     E minor 7Em7     G+G     D MajorD
Loving is dying for someone who doesn't deserve
E minor 7Em7     G+G
Finders are keepers
  Cadd9Cadd9    D MajorD      E minor 7Em7  Em/F# G+G
But losing would bring her to you
       E minor 7Em7 Em/F#  G+G
Bring her to you


   E minor 7Em7           D MajorD             Cadd9Cadd9
Some seats are still open but your glass is half full my dear
E minor 7Em7       C majorC           Cadd9Cadd9
Leaving is easy once you've decided to listen to what we both hear


Chorus:
E minor 7Em7    G+G
Roses are black
Cadd9Cadd9   D MajorD     E minor 7Em7     G+G     D MajorD
Loving is dying for someone who doesn't deserve
E minor 7Em7     G+G
Finders are keepers
  Cadd9Cadd9    D MajorD      E minor 7Em7  Em/F# G+G
But losing would bring her to you
       E minor 7Em7 Em/F#  G+G
