Verse 1:
A minorAm     Fmaj7Fmaj7
 Turn the key
A minorAm      Fmaj7Fmaj7
 And step into the blackness
A minorAm     Fmaj7Fmaj7
 Lamplight falls
A minorAm      Fmaj7Fmaj7
 And casts a laughing phantom
A minorAm  Fmaj7Fmaj7
 I imagine your smile
    A minorAm            Fmaj7Fmaj7
And the life that we could share
A minorAm       Fmaj7Fmaj7
 But with the last of my steps
     A minorAm        Fmaj7Fmaj7
I see the truth lying there

Chorus:
   DmDm  G+G
Dead roses
          C majorC     E7E7
At the bottom of an oubliette
               A minorAm       Fmaj7Fmaj7
Where they beat you 'til you begged to live
             G+G      C majorC
You are mine and you were always mine
          DmDm     G+G
Now I'm crying over dead roses
            C majorC  E7E7
I could never let them go


Verse 2:
A minorAm     Fmaj7Fmaj7
 A augmentedA winged beast
A minorAm      Fmaj7Fmaj7
 With horns upon his cranium
A minorAm    Fmaj7Fmaj7
 Slinks away
A minorAm       Fmaj7Fmaj7
 And grinning, makеs his way up
A minorAm      Fmaj7Fmaj7
 I grasp the pieces of rose
     A minorAm         Fmaj7Fmaj7
And your raven locks of hair
A minorAm      Fmaj7Fmaj7
 I hear the turn of the key
   A minorAm          Fmaj7Fmaj7
As I hiss my final prayer


Chorus:
   DmDm   G+G
Dead roses
          C majorC     E7E7
At the bottom of an oubliette
               A minorAm      Fmaj7Fmaj7
Where they beat you 'til you beg to live
             G+G      Fmaj7Fmaj7
You are mine and you were always mine
          DmDm     G+G
Now I'm crying over dead roses
            C majorC  E7E7
I could never let them go
