Monarchy Of Roses by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Key: EE | Capo: 0fr |  Left-Handed 

    


Verse 1:
E5
   The crimson tide is flowing through your fingers as you sleep
The promise of a clean regime are promises we keep.
Do you like it rough I ask and are you on to task?
The calicoes of pettibon where cultures come to clash
Chorus:
C             Em                     C              Em
Several of my best friends wear, the colours of the crown
    C             Em              D               Bm
And Mary wants to fill it up, and Sherry wants to tear it all back 
C     Em
down, girl
    C              Em
The savior of your life
    D           Bm
The monarchy of roses
    D           Bm      E5
The monarchy of roses tonight
Verse 2:
E5
  The cloth between my former queen, her legendary stare
The holy tears that I am in, the lovely cross to bear
Chorus:
C             Em                     C               Em
Several of my best friends know, the secrets of this town
    C             Em               D               Bm
And Mary wants to raise it up, and Sherry wants to split it all   
C      Em
around, girl
    C               Em
The sailors of the night
    D           Bm
The monarchy of roses
    D           Bm             E5
The monarchy of roses tonight
Solo Chords: (This part is kind of iffy, but these chords sound 
really good for an acoustic version of the song. Although they may 
not be the chords actually used in the song, they use all the 
notest that Josh uses in the solo, and give the same feeling if 
you're playing alone.)
