Tom: Am
| Am | F | C G/B | Am E* |
[Verse 1]
Am F C G/B Am
Roses are not red, a still life never growing,
E Am F C G/B Am E
the sun is not a source of light and the wind will not be blowing.
F E Am G D*
Birds will die in the sky, the sky that is not blue,
F E* Am E
everything is as it was: I never loved you, I never loved you.
[Verse 2]
Am F C G/B Am
Roses are not red, the rain is not been falling,
E Am F C G/B Am E
and telephones ring unaware of why we bother calling.
F E Am G D*
No one there would ever care to hear what we've been through,
Am E* Am E
everything is in its place, I never loved you, I never loved you.
[Bridge]
F G C G/B Am E
Your face, so unremarkable, could never light this lonely town,
F G C G/B Am E
your voice, all but forgotten, does not echo every single sound.
F G
Your eyes without expression, there's nothing special in that case,
Am G D*
so, why do I spend every night
F E*
dreaming of the things I'll never miss?
[Verse 3]
Am F C G/B Am
No joy as spring arrives, there's nothing sad about you leaving,
E Am F C G/B Am
and I will live my life the same, maybe this time without breathing.
E F E
So, look through these eyes that never cried,
Am G D*
and any fool could see what's true:
Am E* Am F
roses are not red, roses are not red, roses are not red and I never loved you.
Am E* Am*
Roses are not red, roses are not red, roses are not red and I never loved you.
