[Intro]
G*, D*, A*
G*, Em*, D*, A*
[Verse]
G D Em A
Sometimes she feels like heaven's on earth
G D A
And she's riding the wind like a feather
G D Em A
Careless in love, but careless decisions
G D A*
She should have known much better
[Pre-Chorus]
G D A
He was gonna break her heart
G D A*
Always gonna break her heart
[Chorus]
G D A
Save your roses and all your sweet talk
Em G A
Boy you must think you're so clever
G D Em A
But poisonous words give you away
Em G A
Like wearing a scarlet letter
Em D A
Like you're wearing a scarlet letter
[Verse 2]
G D Em A
History tells he's never been genuine
G D A
Pages of pain that he's caused
G D Em A
She was a fool, believing his feelings
G D A*
were more than just counterfeit love
[Pre-Chorus]
G D A
He was gonna break her heart
G D A*
Always gonna break her heart
[Chorus]
G D A
Save your roses and all your sweet talk
Em G A
Boy you must think you're so clever
G D Em A
But poisonous words give you away
Em G A
Like wearing a scarlet letter
Em D A
Like you're wearing a scarlet letter
[Verse 3]
B Em G A
And maybe someday your tears will cry rivers like mine do
B Em G A
And maybe that day you'll drown and you'll suffer like I do, now oh
[Chorus]
G D A
Save your roses and all your sweet talk
Em G A
Boy you must think you're so clever
G D Em A
But poisonous words give you away
Em G A
Like wearing a scarlet letter
[Outro]
G D Em A
Lose those make believe smiles and those lead me on looks
Em G A
Boy you swear you're so clever
G D Em A
But poisonous words give you away
Em G A
Like wearing a scarlet letter
Em D A
Like you're wearing a scarlet letter
Em* G* A*
Like wearing a scarlet letter
