[A] I can hardly bear the sight of lipstick on a cigarette's lid in the ashtray.
I ain't cold the way you left them, but it leaves your lips [D] caressing [A] while you pack.
[D] All the lip prints on the half-filled cup of coffee that you [A] pardoned and drank.
[E] But at least you thought you wanted it, that's so much more than I can [A]
say for me.
But what a good year [D] for my roses, [E] a million more still [A]
living.
Long could stand [Bm] another moment, [E] funny I don't [A] even care.
And as you turn and [D] walk away, [E] as the door [D] behind you [A] closes,
the only thing [Bm] I have to say, [E] it's been a good [A] year for the [D] roses.
[A]
Well after three whole years of marriage, it's the first time you haven't made a bed.
I guess the reason we're not talking is so many things we've said, you left unsaid.
[D] While a million thoughts go running through my mind, I find I have [A]
said a word.
And [E] from the bedroom the familiar sound of our one baby's crying [A] goes unheard.
But what a good year [D] for my roses, [E] a million more still [A] lingering.
Long could stand another [Bm] moment, [E] funny I don't [A] even care.
But as you turn and [D] walk away, as the door behind you [A] closes,
the only thing I [Bm] have to say, [E] it's been a good year for [A] the roses.
