[Verse 1]
A I can hardly bear the sight of lipstick D A On the cigarettes there in the ashtray
Lying cold the way you left them
D A But at least your lips carressed them while you packed D And a lip print on a half-filled cup of coffee A That you poured and didn't drink E7 But at least you thought you wanted it A That's so much more than I can say for me
Chorus:
D What a good year for the roses E7 A Many blooms still linger there Bm7 The lawn could stand another mowing E7 A Funny, I don't even care D As you turned to walk away E7 D A As the door behind you closes Bm7 The only thing I know to say E7 A D A/C# E7 A D/A A It's been a good year for the roses
[Verse 2]
A After three full years of marriage D A It's the first time that you haven't made the bed
I guess the reason we're not talking
D A There's so little left to say, we haven't said D While a million thoughts go running through my mind A I find I haven't said a word E7 From the bedroom the familiar sound A Of our one baby's crying goes un-heard
[Chorus]
D What a good year for the roses E7 A Many blooms still linger there Bm7 The lawn could stand another mowing E7 A Funny, I don't even care D As you turned to walk away E7 D A As the door behind you closes Bm7 The only thing I know to say E7 A D A/C# E7 A It's been a good year for the ro- o- ses
