I Kept The Roses chords by Tenille Townes

Guitar chords with lyrics

  • Capo on 2nd
Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Difficulty: Novice

Verse 1:
D
I tore all the pictures, from all of their frames
Em
And all of your t-shirts, I gave them away
A                        A7
I gave up those friends, we both hung around
G                         A
I gave up that bar on the east side of town

D
Quit drivin’ by to, see if you’re home
Em
And I took your dad’s number right out of my phone
A                    A7                     D
I came to my senses, and I gave up drinkin’ alone

Chorus:
               G                  D
But I kept the roses, right by my bed
                      F#m
And they sure make me lonely
                   A
But I’m smilin’ instead
                      Em
‘Cause you weren’t the one babe
               Bm
But you were the closest
                     G   A
I let the rest of us go
               G    D
But I kept the roses

Verse 2:
D
I guess they remind me of how love can feel
Em
Sometimes it don’t work, doesn’t mean it ain’t real
A                           A7
We had something different, we had something great
    G                    A7
But somethings just wilt away

Chorus:
               G                  D
But I kept the roses, right by my bed
                      F#m
And they sure make me lonely
                   A
But I’m smilin’ instead
                      Em
‘Cause you weren’t the one babe
               Bm
But you were the closest
                     G   A
I let the rest of us go
               G    D
But I kept the roses

Chorus:

And they sure make me lonely
                   A
But I’m smilin’ instead
                      Em
‘Cause you weren’t the one babe
               Bm
But you were the closest
                     G   A
I let the rest of us go
               G    D
But I kept the roses
