A Good Year For The Roses chords

[A]I can hardly bare the sight of lipstick
on the cigar- [D] -ettes there [A]in the ashtray
lyin? cold the way you left them
at least your lips caress- [D] -ed them [A]while you packed
And a [D]lip print on a half-filled cup of coffee
that you poured and [A]didn?t drink
but at [E]least you thought you wanted it
that?s so much more than I can say [A]for me

[CHORUS]
But what a good year for the [D]roses
[E]many blooms still linger [A]there
the lawn could stand another [D]mowin?
[E]it?s funny, I don?t even [A]care
and when you turned and walked [D]away
[E]and as the door behind you [D]closes [A]
the only thing I know to [D]say
[E]it?s been a good year for the [D]roses [A]

[VERSE]
[A]After three full years of marriage
it?s the first time that you [D]haven?t [A]made the bed
I guess the reason we?re not talkin?
there?s so little left to say, [D]we [A]haven?t said
while a [D]million thoughts go runnin? through my mind
I find I haven?t [A]spoke a word
and from the [E]bedroom those familiar sounds
of our one baby?s cryin? goes un- [A] -heard

[CHORUS]
But what a good year for the [D]roses
[E]many blooms still linger [A]there
the lawn could stand another [D]mowin?
[E]it?s funny, I don?t even [A]care
and when you turned and walked [D]away
[E]and as the door behind you [D]closes [A]
the only thing I know to [D]say
[E]it?s been a good year for the [D]roses [A]
