D G D
Plastered in your loose paper palace
G D
dishes and the back door slams
G A D Bm
the dog's on your floor they don't roam anymore
E A-A7
and the river has gone deaf at the dam
D G D
The dust falls like rain on your doorsteps
G D
chokes you when you lift your rake
G A D Bm
aint no wine so sweet as the taste of your mouth
E A-A7
but your love aint the kind you can keep
Bm A E
Old roses and cigarettes
A A/G# Fm A
pillowcase that remembers you
Bm A E
the scent of you still lingers on my fingertips
A A/G# F#
till i think i might go insane
Bm E Bm E Bm E Bm Bm/C#
when will i see you again?
D G D
I've seen how you look at the stranger
G D
I've seen how you wait when he's gone
G A D Bm
I told you I thought there was sin in your heart
E A-A7
could you honestly tell me I'm wrong?
Bm A E
Old roses and cigarettes
A A/G# Fm A
pillowcase that remembers you
Bm A E
the scent of you still lingers on my fingertips
A A/G# F#
till i think i might go insane
Bm E Bm E Bm E Bm Bm/C#
when will i see you again?
D G D
He tells you that he needs you, he's a liar
G D
he tells you he's a hero, he's a fool
G A D Bm
he tells you he'll stay till the lord's breaking day
E A-A7
and baby he aint nothing but cruel
Bm A E
Old roses and cigarettes
A A/G# Fm A
pillowcase that remembers you
Bm A E
the scent of you still lingers on my fingertips
A A/G# F#
till i think i might go insane
Bm E Bm E Bm E Bm E.....
when will i see you again?
