Good Year For The Roses Chords by Jerry Chestnut

Standard (EADGBE)

I can Ahardly bare the sight of lipstick

On the cigaretDtes there in the aAshtray

Lying cold the way you left them

But at least your lips carrDessed them while you pAacked

And a Dlip print on a half-filled cup of coffee

That you poured and didn't Adrink

But at leE7ast you thought you wanted it

That's so much more than I can say for Ame

Chorus

What a good year for the Droses

E7Many blooms still linger Athere

The lawn could stand another Bm7mowing

E7 Funny, I don't even Acare

As you turned to walk aDway

E7 As the door behind you DclosAes

The only thing I know to Bm7say

E7 It's been a good year for the ArosDes A/C♯ E7 A D A A

Verse 2.

After Athree full years of marriage

It's the first time that you hDaven't made the Abed

I guess the reason we're not talking

There's so little left to Dsay, we haven't Asaid

While a Dmillion thoughts go running through my mind

I find I haven't said a Aword

From the E7bedroom the familiar sound

Of our one baby's crying goes un-Aheard
