Roses Are Not Red (Live At The Mercury Lounge, NY) Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Roses are not [F]red
But still life never [C]grows[G]
[Am]The sun [E]is not a source of l[Am]ight
[F]The wind will not be [C]blo[G]wing[Am]
[E]Birds will [F]die up in [E]the sky,
the sky that is [Am]not [G]blue[F#dim]
Everything is [F]in its place
[E]I never loved you, I never lov[Am]ed you
[E]Roses are not red[Am]
[F]The rain is not be[C]fore [G]me[Am]
Telephones [Em]ring [E]un [Am]aware
[F]Why we bother cal[C]ling[G][Am]
[E]No one [F]there would ever [E]care
To hear what we've [Am]been
[G]through[F#dim]
Everything is as it [F]was
[E]I never loved you, I never l[Am]oved y[E]ou
Your [F]face, [Dm]so un[G]remarkable,
could never [C]light this lonely [G]town[F][Am]
[F]An [Am]d your vo[F]ice,
[G]all but forgotten,
doesn't [C]echo every single [G]sound[F][Am]
[F]His eyes without expression,
nothing spe[G]cial in that kiss
So [Am]why do I [G]spend every [F#dim]night
Dream[F]ing of the things I'll never mis[E]s
No joy as spring ar[Am]rives
[F]Nothing sad about [C]you either
[G]But [Am]I wi[E]ll live my life the [Am]same
[F]But maybe this time without [C]freedom[G]
[Am]To look [E]through these eyes[F] and never cry
[E]And a fool could see wha[Am]t's
[G]true[F#dim]
Roses are not [F]red,
Roses are not red,
Roses are [E]not red
And I [Am]never loved [F]you
Roses are not red,
Roses are not red,
Roses are [E]not red
And I never loved [Am]you[F][Am][F][Am]
[F][Am]
[F][Am][F][Am]
Thank you for watching!
