Intro: Dm Dm Am Dm Dm Am

Verse 1:
Dm
The roses in my garden have been long forgotten
Dm
With their pale, wilted petals
                         Am              C
We'll look for something much, much more special
Dm
New roses will grow much better than the old
Dm
We want a brighter shade of red
                   Am          C   Am G
Like the blood that I, I always shed

Pre-chorus:
C                  Dm
Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder
    F               Am
But I have begun to decay
   C                    Dm
So tell me I'm lovely before I get older
    F                 Am
And I start to wither away

Chorus:
Dm            F              C             Am
The sun disappeared, and the air's getting colder
Dm            F                     C    Am
And I'll cry again, but not on your shoulder
C              Dm                     Am
So tell me I'm lovely before it's all over

Verse 2:
Dm
The thorns cut into me oh so perfectly
Dm
And although my dress is stained
       Am               C
I must be pretty and in pain
Dm
I've already bloomed, now what am I to do?
Dm
The rain will help more beauty grow
              Am              C  Am G
Along comes a new star of the show

Pre-chorus:
C                  Dm
Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder
    F               Am
But I have begun to decay
   C                    Dm
So tell me I'm lovely before I get older
    F                 Am
And I start to wither away

Chorus:
Dm            F              C             Am
The sun disappeared, and the air's getting colder
Dm            F                     C    Am
And I'll cry again, but not on your shoulder
C              Dm                     Am
So tell me I'm lovely before it's all over

Bridge:
    Dm
Oh, made of flesh, arms and legs
F
Shoulders, chest, clothed, undressed
C
Hot and cold, young and old
Am                               Dm
Lost control, I used to be beautiful
F   C   Am
Oh, oh, oh

Pre-chorus:
C                  Dm
Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder
    F               Am
But I have begun to decay
   C                    Dm
So tell me I'm lovely before I get older
    F                 Am
And I start to wither away

Chorus:
Dm            F              C             Am
The sun disappeared, and the air's getting colder
Dm            F                     C    Am
And I'll cry again, but not on your shoulder
C              Dm                     Am
So tell me I'm lovely before it's all over
