Fake Roses

    D

D
Fake roses on the mantle
A
Elvis postcards on the fridge
G
     Ed lays softly by the ringer
D
Baby's sleeping in the crib
D
Old broken taped up tail light
A
On momma's Monte Carlo
G
She don't open all the gas bills
D
Just leaves it on the dashboard


[Chorus]
                         D
It's a low and lonesome song
                                 A
When the wind sweeps through the pine
                      G
She just turns the TV on
                        D
Puts her mind on better times

Continues after the ad
                             D
Takes the long way home from work
                                    A
Car parked on the wrong side of the bridge
                        G
Country gold, Saturday night, and smokes one
                          D
You don't have to tell me any of this


[Chorus]
                         D
It's a low and lonesome song
                                 A
When the wind sweeps through the pine
                   G
She just turns the TV on
                        D
Puts her mind on better times
                         D
It's a low and lonesome song
                                 A
When the wind sweeps through the pine
                   G
She just turns the TV on
                        D
Puts her mind on better times


[Bridge]
D
Your heart is breaking
A
I hear what you're saying
G                                 D
You don't have to tell me anything
D
Your heart is breaking
A
I hear what you're saying
G                                 D
You don't have to tell me anything
D
Your heart is breaking
A
I hear what you're saying
G                                 D
You don't have to tell me anything


                     D
He won't come around again
                    A
She don't open that front door
                                G
She hears that low and lonesome sound
                 D
She don't answer anymore
