"A Good Year For The Roses"
       G                                            C                   G
I can hardly bear the sight of lipstick,On the cigarettes there in the ashtray
       G    
Lyin' cold the way you left them
                      C                    G
At least your lips caressed them While you packed
       C                                                                    G
And a lip print on a half filled cup of coffee That you poured and didn't drink
        Am                     D         Am                D             G C G
But at least you thought you wanted it , so much more than I can say for me

Chorus
       G7                 C   D                           G
What a good year for the roses ,Many blooms still linger there
                               Am   D                     G
The lawn could stand another mowin', Funny, I don't even care
            G7                 C  D                             C  G 
And as you turned and walked away, And as the door behind you closes 
           G7             C D                                G  C G
The only thing I know to say, It's been a good year for the roses 

 C D G C G D 
 
        G
After three full years of marriage,
                               C                G
It's the first time that you, Haven't made the bed
                                                               C               G
I guess the reason we're not talkin'There's so little left to say, We haven't said
          C        
While a million thoughts Go runnin' through my mind
                          G
I find I haven't spoke a word
              Am               D
And from the bedroom those familiar sounds,
     Am              D              G
 Of our own baby's cryin', Goes unheard

Chorus
       G7                 C   D                           G
What a good year for the roses ,Many blooms still linger there
                               Am   D                     G
The lawn could stand another mowin', Funny, I don't even care
            G7                 C  D                             C  G 
And as you turned and walked away, And as the door behind you closes 
           G7             C  D                                C Bm Am D G
The only thing I know to say, It's been a good year for the roses 

End
