Through The Roses

Gm Eb Cm Eb Gm Eb Catch me laughing Cm Eb Catch me drinking past the dawn Gm Eb Catch me singing Cm Eb Catch me beaming—open armed Gm Eb Don’t watch me weeping Cm Eb Don’t watch me weep into my palms Gm Eb Cm Eb Don’t watch me leaving, I’ll be gone Gm Eb Cm Kiss me mother, Kiss me father Eb Fore I go Gm Eb Don’t want to leave you Cm Eb But I’m sorry... I can’t hold Eb And you see me, through the roses Bb F Through the lights and the smoke and the screen Eb I’m no one better Bb I’m no better than you and I'm scared F Just searching for truth Eb It’s not easy, just being human Bb F And the lights and the smoke and the screens Eb Don’t make it better Bb I’m no stronger than you and I’m scared F I don't know what to do Eb I’m scared N.C. That I can’t pull through Cm Eb In the weak of my soul Gm Eb Cm Bb The temptation to look inside my wrist—it grows Gm Eb The cut is waiting Cm Eb The cut is waxing in its hold Gm Eb The clutch of nothing Cm The curse of wanting Eb Takes me whole Eb And you see me, through the roses Bb F Through the lights and the smoke and the screen Eb I’m no one better Bb I’m no better than you and I'm scared F Just searching for truth Eb It’s not easy, just being human Bb F And the lights and the smoke and the screens Eb Don’t make it better Bb I’m no stronger than you and I’m scared F I don't know what to do Eb I’m scared Eb But we can pull through together Bb F Together, together Eb We can pull through together Bb F Together, together Eb We can pull through together Bb F Together, together Eb We can pull through together Bb F Together, together
