[Verse 1]
[D]You've practiced and rehearsed
But in your [Daug]heart yo[Bbaug]u know
It's [Em]too l[G]ate.
Ex[A]perience should tell [G]you[A]
Never [Em]get your story t[G]oo s[D]traight.
You'd better [G]steel yourself
And [Gm]pre pare for
[D]Some blues to descend
[E]'Ca[Em]use you've broken
something this [G]time
[Asus4]Stoplight[A] roses can't[D]
mend.
[Em]

[Verse 2]
[A]
You've [D]dusted off your shame face
In the [Bbaug]mirror behind the bathroom
[Em]door[B].[Em][G]
That [A]little- boy- lost look
That used to work so [Asus4]well
[G]Doesn't any[D]more.
If [G]you believe your same- old used- [Gm]to- be
Will [D]see you [E]through
[Em]You'll last about as long as
[A]sto[D]plight ros[A]es do.[D]

[Verse 3]
[D]
Stoplight [Em]roses[A]
In their [D]sad array.
Love's promise [G]in cellophane [A]lace
Or dead [D]giveaway?[G]
You'll need [Gm]time to
[Bbaug]de vise[D]
A stylish [E]plan
And [Em]you'll do it driving
over [A]to
The stoplight roses [D]man.

[A]stoplight ros[A]es do.[D]
