Verse 1
The crimson tide is flowing through your fingers as you sleep
The promise of a clean regime are promises we keep.
Do you like it rough I ask and are you on to task?
The calicoes of pettibon where cultures come to clash
Chorus
Several of my best friends wear, the colours of the crown
And Mary wants to fill it up, and Sherry wants to tear it all back
down, girl
The savior of your life
The monarchy of roses
The monarchy of roses tonight
Verse 2
The cloth between my former queen, her legendary stare
The holy tears that I am in, the lovely cross to bear
Chorus
Several of my best friends know, the secrets of this town
And Mary wants to raise it up, and Sherry wants to split it all
around, girl
The sailors of the night
The monarchy of roses
The monarchy of roses tonight
Solo chords
(This part is kind of iffy, but these chords sound
really good for an acoustic version of the song. Although they may
not be the chords actually used in the song, they use all the
notest that Josh uses in the solo, and give the same feeling if
you're playing alone.)

Chorus
Several of my best friends wear, the colours of the crown
And Mary wants to fill it up, and Sherry wants to tear it all back

The savior of your life
The monarchy of roses
The monarchy of roses tonight
Outro
Hey yeah
We all want the rose you know, I said
Hey yeah
Show us love before you go
Say I will, say I want to
The story of love that I will never taunt you
Hey yeah
We all want the rose you know, I said
Hey yeah
Show us love before you go
Say I will, say I want to
The story of love that I will always want you
Hey
