Cactus and a rose Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Sitting up here in this [Bm]New [D]York
[Em]townhouse
Decorated in [G]grays and blues
[C]and everybody [G]knows
Love won't [C]grow for a
[D]cactus and a rose
[G]

[Verse 2]
When that old wild streak
be[D]neath my skin
[Em]Sets my crazy [G]spree again
They'll [C]all say I told [G]you so
Love won't [C]grow for
[D]a cactus and a rose
[G]

[Verse 3]
'Cause I still like to drink my [Em]beer
And [C]I still love a honky [G]tonk
Where the [Em]good ole girls will
always dance with you
When the [C]high falootin' women [D]won't

[Verse 4]
And [G]I'm locked into a way of life
I [C]can't give it up,
I [G]know it makes [C]me sad
Love can[G]'t be had for [D]a cactus and a [G]rose
It makes [C]me sad
Love can[G]'t be had for a [D]cactus and a rose

[Interlude 1]

[C][G][Em][C][D][G]
[C][G][C][G][D][G]

[Verse 5]
[G]Sometimes falling [D]makes more sense
Than sit[Em]ting in the middle of
[G]the same old fence
You're gonna [C]loose either way you [G]go
And love won't [C]grow for
[D]a cactus and a [G]rose

[Verse 6]
So [G]I'm sitting up here in this [D]New
York [Em]townhouse
Decorated in [G]grays and blues
[C]and everybody [G]knows
Love won't [C]grow for
[D]a cactus and a rose
[G]

[Verse 7]
'Cause I still like to drink my [Em]beer
And [C]I still love a honky [G]tonk
Where the [Em]good ole girls will
always dance with you
When [C]the high falootin' women
[D]won't

[Verse 8]
And I'm [G]locked into a way of life
I [C]can't give it up,
I [G]know it makes [C]me sad
Love can[G]'t be had for [D]a cactus and a [G]rose

[Verse 9]
It makes me [C]sad
Love [G]can't be had for a [D]cactus

[Outro 1]
and a rose
