THE PRETENDERS: ?ENGLISH ROSES?
Chords by Ney Young

E MajorE D MajorD
B minorBm D MajorD A augmentedA A majorA (2x)

B minorBm D MajorD          A augmentedA
  Just before it rains the wind whips 'round the balcony
B minorBm D MajorD         A augmentedA
  And the sky closes on the english roses
B minorBm D MajorD        A augmentedA
  And she'll be pacin' Round and 'round and 'round and 'round
B minorBm    D MajorD      A augmentedA
Her Room, these storms always find here to remind her

B minorBm D MajorD A augmentedA

B minorBm D MajorD       A augmentedA
  To the endless sky The pink over
B minorBm  D MajorD          A augmentedA
Grey? She looks for an answer but it's too late
B minorBm  D MajorD      A augmentedA
   Maybe it's true: some things were just never meant
B minorBm  D MajorD A augmentedA
To be? Maybe not

C# minorC#m D MajorD         A augmentedA
   This is a story, fruit cut from the vine
C# minorC#m D MajorD            A augmentedA
   Forgot and left to rot, long before its time
C# minorC#m D MajorD        A augmentedA
   This is a story about the girl who lived next door
E MajorE  D MajorD
   Looking for someone to hold

B minorBm D MajorD A augmentedA A majorA (2x)

B minorBm D MajorD          A augmentedA
  A augmentedA wish made on a star brought her here tonight
B minorBm D MajorD          A augmentedA
  At a courtyard she waits a thousand broken dates
B minorBm D MajorD            A augmentedA
  But she holds the hymnal where so carefully pressed
B minorBm D MajorD        A augmentedA
  Is the english rose she laid to rest

C# minorC#m D MajorD   A augmentedA
   Ahhh? It's only a story
C# minorC#m D MajorD            A augmentedA
   Flowers in full bloom, bouquets in every room
C# minorC#m D MajorD           A augmentedA
  Ooh, this is a story, fruit cut from the vine
E MajorE  D MajorD
  Looking for someone to hold

Repeat C# minorC#m E MajorE C# minorC#m E MajorE until fade...
