[Verse 1]
Bm|
I couldn't take it, couldn't stand another minute;
Bm|
Couldn't bear another day without you in it.
G|
All of the joy that I had known for all my life
Em| F#m| G| Bm|
Was stripped away from me the minute that you died.
Bm|
To have you in my life was all I ever wanted,
Bm|
But now without you I'm a soul forever haunted.
G|
Can't help but feel that I had taken you for granted;
Em| F#m| G| Bm|
No way in Hell that I can ever comprehend this.
Bm
I wasn't dreaming when they told me you were gone,
Bm
I was wide awake and feeling that they had to be wrong.
G
How could you leave me when you swore that you would stay?
Em C
Now I'm trapped inside a nightmare every single f'ing day.
Bm
It's like a movie, but there's not a happy ending;
Bm
Every scene fades black, and there's no pretending.
G
This little fairy tale doesn't seem to end well,
Em C
There's no knight in shining armor who will wake me from the spell.
Em Bm
I know you didn't plan this;
Em Bm| Bm| Bm| Bm|
You tried to do what's right.
Em Bm
But in the middle of this madness,
C Cm Gm F#
I'm the one (I'm the one, I'm the one) you left to win this fight.
[Chorus]
Rest- one bar
Bm
Red like roses
G Em G A
Fills my head with dreams and finds me
Bm
Always closer
G Em
To the emptiness and sadness
G A (Bm)
That has come to take the place of you.
[Verse 2]
Bm|
I know you're broken down by anger and by sadness;
Bm|
You feel I left you in a world that's full of madness.
G|
Wish I could talk to you, if only for a minute;
Em| F#m| G| Bm|
Make you understand the reasons why I did it.
Bm|
I wanna tell you that you're all that ever mattered;
Bm|
Want you to know that, for eternity, I'm shattered.
G|
I tried so hard just to protect you, but I failed to,
Em| F#m| G| Bm|
And in a prison of abandonment I've jailed you.
Bm
I never planned that I would leave you there alone,
Bm
I was sure that I would see you when I made it back home.
G
And all the times I swore that it would be okay;
Em C
Now I'm nothing but a liar, and you're thrown into the fray.
Bm
This bedtime story ends with misery ever after,
Bm
The pages are torn, and there's no final chapter.
G
I didn't have a choice, I did what I had to do;
Em C
I made a sacrifice, but forced a bigger sacrifice on you.
Em Bm
I know you've lived a nightmare;
Em Bm| Bm| Bm| Bm|
I caused you so much pain.
Em Bm
But, baby, please don't do what I did;
C Cm Gm F#
I don't want (I don't want, I don't want) you to waste your life in vain.
[Chorus 2]
Bm
Red like roses
G Em G A
Fills my head with dreams and finds me
Bm
Always closer
G Em
To the emptiness and sadness
G A (Em)
That has come to take the place of you.
[Bridge]
Em Bm
You're not the only one who needed me; I thought you understood.
Em Bm
You were the one I needed, and you left me as I always feared you would
Em Bm
Would I change it if I could?
G Em
It doesn't matter how,
G F#m
The petals scatter now.
G Em
Every nightmare just discloses
G F#m
It's your blood that's red like roses,
G Em
And no matter what I do,
G A (Bm)
Nothing ever takes the place of you.
(Verse chords under Solo)
[Chorus]
Bm
Red like roses.
G Em G A
Fills my head with dreams and finds me.
Bm
Always closer,
G Em
To the emptiness and sadness,
G A|
That has come to take the place......
G|
...of...
Bm|
...you.
