[Verse]
D A Bm A G
Here we go once again, You've been gone and here you stand
D A G A Bm A/C#
With a dozen 'I'm sorrys' in your hand | / |
D A Bm A G
Victim of your potent charms, I took you back with open arms
D A G A
But along with the roses came the thorns
[Chorus]
Bm A/C# D A Bm A G
And that's why red roses just won't work now
D A Bm A G
'Cause you've done too much to talk things out
D A Bm A G
You could tell me you love me, but that's the one thing I'll always doubt
D A D
Red roses just won't work now
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
D A Bm A G
Gone for good's the trust I had, you led me down the garden path
D A G A Bm A/C#
Just too many times to take you back | / |
D A Bm A G
So faithless love why don't you save the roses for you know who
D A G A
I already know how long they'll last
[Chorus]
Bm A/C# D A Bm A G
And that's why red roses just won't work now
D A Bm A G
'Cause you've done too much to talk things out
D A Bm A G
You could tell me you love me, but that's the one thing I'll always doubt
D A G
Red roses just won't work now
[Outro]
D/A A D G D
No darlin', red roses just won't work now
