Beautiful song. Couldn't find it, so
 here it is.

E
You've practiced and rehearsed it
     E+                         
But in your heart you know It's 
F#m       F#m/F  F#m/E
too late.
  B               B/F#
Experience should tell you
B       B/F#           A    E
  Never get your story too straight.
      A
You'd better steel yourself
       Am
And prepare for
     E        F#
Some blues to descend
              F#m                  
'Cause you've broken something this
      B
 time

                      E       F#m 
Stoplight roses can't mend.
    B


       E
You've dusted off your shame face
       E+                         
In the mirror behind the bathroom 
F#m     F#m/F  F#m/E
door.
     B          B/F#
That little-boy-lost look
     B               B/F#         
That used to work so well Doesn't 
A  E
anymore.
   A                        
If you believe your same-old 
 Am
used-to-be
     E       F#
Will see you through
       F#m                  
You'll last about as long as 
B                E
stoplight roses do.

          F#m
Stoplight roses
 B7                      E   E7
    In their sad array.
                  A
Love's promise in cellophane lace
 B7                 E          E7
       Or dead giveaway?
A                       Am
   You'll need time to devise
E               F#
      A stylish plan
           F#m
And you'll do it driving over to
B                          E      E7
       The stoplight roses man.


       A                        
And if you believe your same-old 
  Am
used-to-be
E                   F#
       Will see you through
       F#m                  
You'll last about as long as 
 B               E
stoplight roses do.
