Funeral For A Friend - Roses For The Dead

capo : 1

intro : Dm A# C

Dm A# C
just to say we’re sorry ,
for the black eyes and bleeding lips .

Dm A# C Dm
and it’s hard to forget
how many lies we’ve told .
or how old we’d grow ,
before i said goodbye .
so let’s scrape our knees on the playground .

Gm D# F
it’s not your fault ,
you feel okay .
it’s too late in the day .
it’s not your fault ,
you feel betrayed .
you can’t come out to play .
i never listened to a word you never said .
i never listened to a word you never said .

Dm
wasting the hours now ,
we’re all suckers for tragedies .
and start this over again ,
and you bring us to our knees .

Dm A# C
as sunrise comes ,
and the story will sell ,
a few hundred papers ,
so we’ll follow you up .

Gm D# F
it’s not your fault ,
you feel okay .
it’s too late in the day .
it’s not your fault ,
you feel betrayed .
you can’t come out to play .
i never listened to a word you never said .
i never listened to a word you never said .

Gm A# F
so raise your hands up high ,
and let this rain pour on .
so raise your hands up high ,
and wash us away .

Gm F D#
like innocence and childbirth ,
you look just like your mother
and you look just like your father .
forgive him our father ,
your son is smiling ,
so lay roses around you .
