[Verse 1]
G
She don't like roses,
G/F# Em C2
She don't like champagne.
/ Em7/B Am7 D
She took a step away from the fast lane.
G
She lives on Jones Road,
G/F# Em C2
Down by freight train.
/ Em7/B
You met her on a Monday,
Am7 D G /
You were in love by Tuesday night.
[Verse 2]
G
She lived in Detroit,
G/F# Em C2
She lived in Boston.
/ Em/B
She had a couple years there,
Am7 D
She got lost in.
G
She still gets shake-y,
G/F# Em C2
But not too often.
/ Em/B
You take her in your arms,
Am7 D G /
When you want to calm her down.
[Chorus]
D Cadd9 G /
And her bed is under her window,
D Cadd9 G /
And the sun's going down in the west.
D Cadd9 G /
And her voice whispers softly, Go real slow.
Am7 / D/F# / / /
And you watch the rhythm of her breath.
[Verse 3]
G
She wants a tree house,
G/F# Em C2
She wants a garden.
/ Em/B
A little bit of land,
Am7 D
To put her hands in.
G
It smells like lavender,
G/F# Em C2
In her apartment.
/ Em/B
It's always on your clothes,
Am7 D G /
Every time you're going home.
[Chorus 2]
D Cadd9 G /
And her bed is under her window,
D Cadd9 G /
And her fingers brush over your chest.
D Cadd9 G /
With your heart beating fast you go real slow,
Am7 D/F#
And you match the rhythm of her breath.
[Bridge]
Em D/F# C2
And if all your dreams come true,
/ Em D/F# C2
Do your memories still end up haunting you?
/ Em D/F# C2 /
Is there such a thing as really breaking through,
/ / G
To another day and a brighter shade of blue?
[Instrumental]
G/F# Em C2 / Em7/B Am7 D/F#
G G/F# Em C2 / Em7/B Am7 D/F#
G
[Chorus 3]
D Cadd9 G /
And her bed is under her window,
D Cadd9 G /
And her arm's laying over your chest.
D Cadd9 G /
And the street light is soft on her pillow,
Am7 / D4 D / /
You can feel the rhythm of her breath.
[Verse 4]
G
She don't like roses,
G/F# Em C2
She don't drink champagne.
/ Em/B
And now you're walking home,
Am7 D
In the soft rain.
G
You pass the mailman,
G/F# Em
You watch the lights change.
C2 Em/B
And you're feeling fine.
Am7 D/F# G
You don't even mind the rain.
[End]
