[F]
[Bb] Only a [C] few old petals left on [Bb] the rose that touched [Am] your hand
My [Bb] little [F] heart is a graveyard, it's a [Bb] no [F] man's land
[Bb] You could tell I didn't [F] care
You [Bb]
kept pushing till I [F] did
Walk [Bb]
up in a pit of [F] despair on your [Dm] bed
[C] And I wondered how I could do without you
How absurd, how [Bb] absurd How [F] absurd
Put [C] [Bb] my lipstick [Dm] back [F] on
[Bb] Look myself in the [F] eye
[Bb] I'm melting out [F] of cold, [Dm] hard walls
And [C]
I'm getting very good at saying my goodbyes My [Bb] goodbyes
My [F] goodbyes
[Bb] My goodbyes My [F] goodbyes
[Bb] [F]
[Bb] Can [F]
[Bb] [F]
[Bb] [F]
[Bb] you [Am] read the inscription?
[Bb] It's the east once [Am] I've said
[Bb] He better take [F] me with him, when [Bb] he goes I'm good [F] as dead
[Bb] Put some roses on the [F] stones
Look
[Bb] your frowns in [F] the eye
[Bb] There's nothing else we've got [F] that I would suck in [Dm]
line
[C] And I'll dance in your funeral if you dance at mine
You [Gm] dance at [Bb] mine
You dance [F] at mine
You dance [Bb] at mine
You dance [F] at mine
[Bb] They took it all and I don't [F] care
[Bb] I already said my [F] farewell
Swing [Bb]
all my love, [F] let the blues now I'm [Dm] torn
To
[C] hit that long hard road that passes straight through hell
Straight through [Bb] hell
Straight through [F] hell
I wish [Bb] you well, [F] sweet potluck
I wish [Bb] you well, sweet [F] potluck
I wish you [Bb] well, sweet [F] potluck
[C] [F] [G]
