Strum
D-DU-UDU
Plastered in your loose paper palace
dishes and the back door slams
the dog's on your floor they don't roam anymore
and the river has gone deaf at the dam
The dust falls like rain on your doorsteps
chokes you when you lift your rake
aint no wine so sweet as the taste of your mouth
but your love aint the kind you can keep
Old roses and cigarettes
pillowcase that remembers you
the scent of you still lingers on my fingertips
till i think i might go insane
when will i see you again?
I've seen how you look at the stranger
I've seen how you wait when he's gone
I told you I thought there was sin in your heart
could you honestly tell me I'm wrong?
Old roses and cigarettes
pillowcase that remembers you
the scent of you still lingers on my fingertips
till i think i might go insane
when will i see you again?
He tells you that he needs you, he's a liar
he tells you he's a hero, he's a fool
he tells you he'll stay till the lord's breaking day
and baby he aint nothing but cruel
Old roses and cigarettes
pillowcase that remembers you
the scent of you still lingers on my fingertips
till i think i might go insane
when will i see you again?
