♫ Verse 1:
       A minorAm  FF          C majorC     G/BG/B   A minorAm
Roses are not red,  a still life never  growing,
  E MajorE           A minorAm  FF            C majorC     G/BG/B   A minorAm  E MajorE
the sun is not a source of light  and the wind will not  be blowing.
      FF     E MajorE            A minorAm   G+G   D*
Birds will die in the sky, the sky that is not  blue,
          FF  E*                 A minorAm    E MajorE
everything is as it was:  I never loved you, I never loved  you.

♫ Verse 2:
       A minorAm  FF           C majorC     G/BG/B   A minorAm
Roses are not red,  the rain is not been  falling,
  E MajorE         A minorAm  FF         C majorC     G/BG/B   A minorAm   E MajorE
and telephones ring unaware  of why we bother calling.
    FF        E MajorE              A minorAm   G+G   D*
No one there would ever care to hear what we've been through,
           A minorAm   E*                 A minorAm    E MajorE
everything is in its place,  I never loved you, I never loved  you.

♫ Bridge:
   FF    G+G             C majorC         G/BG/B   A minorAm  E MajorE
Your face, so unremarkable, could never light this lonely town,
   FF   G+G              C majorC         G/BG/B   A minorAm  E MajorE
your voice, all but forgotten, does not echo every single sound.
   FF                    G+G
Your eyes without expression, there's nothing special in that case,
  A minorAm    G+G      D*
so, why do I spend every night
FF                   E*
dreaming of the things I'll never miss?

♫ Verse 3:
          A minorAm   FF                C majorC     G/BG/B   A minorAm
No joy as spring arrives,  there's nothing sad about you  leaving,
  E MajorE            A minorAm  FF             C majorC    G/BG/B   A minorAm
and I will live my life the same,  maybe this time without breathing.
  E MajorE         FF        E MajorE
So, look through these eyes that never cried,
               A minorAm   G+G   D*
and any fool could see what's  true:
       A minorAm                  E*       A minorAm    FF
roses are not red, roses are not red, roses are not red and I never  loved you.
       A minorAm                  E*       Am*
Roses are not red, roses are not red, roses are not red and I never loved you.
