Intro: G D - Dsus2 Am        
G              D          Am
I could have treated you better
G                       D         Am
But you couldn't have treated me worse
G        D      Am
But it's he who laughs last
G  D             Am
Is he who cries first
G            D             Am
Sometimes I feel I know strangers
G           D       Am
Better than I know my friends
G       D     Am
Why must a beginning
G       D          Am
Be the means to an end
             
      G             Cadd9
The stones from my enemies
G                 Cadd9
These wounds will mend
   Em           D
But I cannot survive             
    Cadd9           G            Cadd9       G 
the roses from my friends     
G         D                  Am
When the last word has been spoken
                  G              D            Am
And we've beared witness to the final setting su
G                 D          Am
All that shall remain is a token
G              D        Am
Of what we've said and done
G              D             Am
When all we've had has been forsaken
G                   D           Am
Distant church bells no longer ring
G          D                Am
That's the sound of a heart taken
G                 D        Am
And the story of tears from a king
      G             Cadd9
The stones from my enemies
G                 Cadd9
These wounds will mend
   Em           D
But I cannot survive             
    Cadd9           G            
the roses from my friends
   Em           D      Cadd9 - Bm5* - Asus4
oh i cannot survive the roses
(repete o verso)
This may be the last time I see you
Forgive me for holding you close
This may be the last time that I see you
So of this moment I will make the most
This may be the last time I see you
But if you keep me in your heart
Together we shall be eternal
If you believe
We shall never part
      G             Cadd9
The stones from my enemies
G                 Cadd9
These wounds will mend
   Em           D
But I cannot survive             
    Cadd9          G            
the roses from my friends
   Em           D      
oh i cannot survive
Cadd9 Bm5* Asus4 (x3)
the roses
          Cadd9     Bm5* Bb5* Cadd9   G 
i cannot survive the roses from my friends.
