Black Roses

Nashville Cast

key: Am Tuning: E A D G B E
               Am                F
I can see your eyes staring into mine
                 C
But it's a battlefield
                        Gsus4
and you're on the other side
                   Am                   F
You can throw your words sharper than a knife
             C
And leave me cold
                    Gsus4
In another house on fire


[Refrain]

Am    F        C                          Em     
I lay low, lay low, and watch the bridges burn
Am    F        C                           Em     
I lay low, lay low, what more could I have done?


[Chorus]

Am                          F
Now you only bring me black roses
         C                              Em
And they crumble into dust when they're held
Am                          F
Now you only bring me black roses
            C      Em        
Under your spell


[Verse]
            Am                    F
She told me twice, all her good advice
               C
But I couldn't see
                      Gsus4    G
I was clouded by your lies
      Am                      F
Up in smoke, a vision she foretold
              C 
She said stay away
                            Gsus4    G
'cause that boy's a warning sign


[Pre-Chorus]

Am    Fmaj7    C                       Em     
I lay low, lay low and watch the bridges burn


[Chorus]

Am                          F
Now you only bring me black roses
         C                               Em
And they crumble into dust when they're held
Am                          F
Now you only bring me black roses
          C      Em       
Under your spell


[Bridge]

        Am
And I'm done try'na be the one
F                     C         Dm
Picking up the broken pieces
        Am
And I'm done try'na be the one
            F
Who says I love you dear
        C        Dm
But I'm leaving


[Chorus]

Am                           F
Now you only bring me black roses
         C                          Em
And they crumble into dust when they're held
Am                          F
Now you only bring me black roses
                      C
But I'm not under your spell
                   Em
I'm not under your spell,
                   Am
I'm not under your spell
                    F
I'm not under your spell
                    C       Em
I'm not under your spell
Am       F        C  Em 
Oooooooh, oooh
