Roses for the dead


Verse:


Am                  F             G                       Am
Just to say we're sorry for the black eyes and bleeding lips,
                    F             G          Am
well it's hard  to forget how many lives we stole
               F       G            Am
or how old we grow before I said goodbye.
                    F               G
So let's scrape our knees on the playground.

Am              F             G                      Am
It's not your fault you feel okay, it's too late in the day.
                 F               G
It's not your fault you feel betrayed
                       Am
you can't come out to play.


Chorus:

Am           F        G               Am
I never listened to a word you never said.
             F        G               Am
I never listened to a word you never said.



Verse:

Am         F                    G                 Am
Wasting the hours now, we're all suckers for tragedies.
                         F               G           Am
We'll start this over again and you bring us to our knees.
            F              G         Am
As sunrise comes and the story will sell
             F                   G
a few hundred papers and we'll follow you up.


Am              F             G                      Am
It's not your fault you feel okay, it's too late in the day.
                 F               G
It's not your fault you feel betrayed
                       Am
you can't come out to play.


Chorus:

Am         F           G              Am
I never listened to a word you never said
           F           G              Am
I never listened to a word you never said.
                 F        G
So raise your hands up high
Am             F     G
and let this rain pour.
Am                F        G
So raise your hands up high
Am      F       G
and wash us away


Bridge:

Am                      G                     F
like innocence and childbirth. You look just like your mother
                        G
and you look just like your father.
Am                          G                     F
Forgive him, our father, your son is smiling so lay roses around
G
you.
