[Verse]
AmI never knew
FThe man you were.
CI never knew
Em7Why she loved you.
AmI couldn’t see
FPast those dark blank stares.
CWhat kind of thoughts
Em7Ran thoughts your head?
[Pre-Chorus]
FI had hoped
CIt wouldn’t last.
AmAnd now my nightmares
Em7Are things of the past.
[Chorus]
AmYour roses,
FI watched them wither
CAs you
Em7Fell to pieces.
AmThe birds stop.
FYour hands drop
CAs you leave behind
Em7All you once treated kind.
[Verse]
AmSo many years
FI lived in fear.
CSo many hours
Em7Spent in tears.
AmYou were a
FStranger in my home.
CBut still, I’d never
Em7Leave you alone.

CIt wouldn’t last.
AmAnd now my nightmares
Em7Are things of the past.

AmThe birds stop.
FYour hands drop
CAs you leave behind
Em7All you once treated kind.

FI’m so glad
G7I knew you.
FI’m so glad
G7You knew me too.
FI’m so glad
G7I knew you.
FAnd now I know
G7Why she loved you.
[Chorus]
AmYour roses,
FI watched them blossom
CAs you
Em7Came back to us.
AmThe birds chirp.
FYour hands work
CAs you revive
Em7All you left behind.
