Roses in the car
D*
Roses in the car
Bm*
Bony saddle, bony street
Bm*
Corrugated iron sheet
D*
This bed is not concrete
D*
This bed in which you sleep
Bm*
Flesh is flesh til blood runs cold
Bm*
And blood is blood, so I am told
D*, D*, Bm*, Bm*
D*, D*, Bm*, Bm*
D*
Your carbon makes a star
D*
Your carbon makes a star
Bm*
And after all, that's all we are
Bm*
After all, that's all we are
Still play the "Quieter" chords, but more vigorously
D*
That's all we are
D*
That's all we are
Bm*
That's all we are
Bm*
That's all we are
D*
That's all we are
D*
That's all we are
Bm*
That's all we are
Bm*
That's all we are
Now you switch to the ordinary chords for a bit, playing the "Higher" F#m, and
sliding up to it from the Bm.
|D |Bm F#m|
All these young men, these young lions
|D |Bm F#m|
All these young men, these young lions
D*
You don't know if it's true
D*
Or if to believe in you
Bm*
There are tunnels through the stone
Bm*
Where weaker hearts have made a home
D*
Their roses in a car
D*
Their roses in a car
Bm*
And after all that's all we are
Bm*
After all that's all we are
The ordinary F#m is played here instead of the higher one.
F#m
And isn't it bizarre
Bm
The adults that we are
A
Still playing
A
Follow the leader
D
Body don't break
D
Body don't break
D
Body don't break
D
Til broken
F#m
Body gonna make
F#m
Body gonna make
F#m
Body gonna make
F#m
Another body

Bm
Don't want to be the last to leave.
