Through The Roses

Gm Eb Cm Eb

[Verse]
Gm      Eb
  Catch me laughing
        Cm                    Eb
  Catch me drinking past the dawn
Gm      Eb
  Catch me singing
        Cm              Eb
  Catch me beaming—open armed

Gm            Eb
  Don’t watch me weeping
              Cm               Eb
  Don’t watch me weep into my palms
Gm            Eb                  
  Don’t watch me leaving, I’ll be 
 Cm  Eb
gone

Gm     Eb              Cm
  Kiss me mother, Kiss me father
         Eb
  Fore I go
Gm               Eb
  Don’t want to leave you
           Cm               Eb
  But I’m sorry... I can’t hold

[Chorus]
         Eb
And you see me, through the roses
             Bb                    
Through the lights and the smoke 
         F
and the screen
            Eb
I’m no one better
I’m no better than you and I'm 
  Bb
scared
Continues after the ad
      F
Just searching for truth
          Eb
It’s not easy, just being human
         Bb                        
And the lights and the smoke and 
     F
the screens
               Eb
Don’t make it better
I’m no stronger than you and I’m 
  Bb
scared
          F
I don't know what to do
      Eb
I’m scared

[Verse]
N.C.
That I can’t pull through
          Cm         Eb
  In the weak of my soul
Gm         Eb               Cm  
  The temptation to look inside 
              Bb
my wrist—it grows
Gm      Eb
  The cut is waiting
        Cm                  Eb
  The cut is waxing in its hold
Gm          Eb
  The clutch of nothing
           Cm
  The curse of wanting
             Eb
  Takes me whole

[Chorus]
         Eb
And you see me, through the roses
             Bb                    
Through the lights and the smoke 
         F
and the screen
            Eb
I’m no one better
I’m no better than you and I'm 
  Bb
scared
      F
Just searching for truth
          Eb
It’s not easy, just being human
         Bb                        
And the lights and the smoke and 
     F
the screens
               Eb
Don’t make it better
I’m no stronger than you and I’m 
  Bb
scared
          F
I don't know what to do
      Eb
I’m scared

                   Eb
But we can pull through together
   Bb        F
Together, together
               Eb
We can pull through together
   Bb        F
Together, together
               Eb
We can pull through together
   Bb        F
Together, together
               Eb
We can pull through together
   Bb        F
Together, together
