Blood and Roses by The Smithereens - Transcribbed by DWdrummer67
This is a little different from the versions you'll find online. I thought was
easier if the whole song was chorded out. During the break, I do a single strum
between the Em and D for 4 counts. Feel free to take liberties with it, it's a
great tune. Enjoy!
Tuning: Standard
Em G Em G D Em G Em G D
It was long ago? seems like yesterday
Em G Em G D Em G Em G D
I saw you standing in the rain? then I heard you say
C D Em
I want to love but it comes out wrong
C D Em
I want to live but I don??t belong

In wintertime the roses died? her blood ran cold and then she said

I close my eyes and I see blood and roses
