White Roses Uke tab by Flyte

G          Em
Pack up the sun
  G          Em
And sweep away the stars
  G          Em           Am
And hang a veil over the moon
 G            Em
The cars are parked
  G             Em
The bells are ringing out
  G            Em                 Am
Just never thought you'd leave so soon
 
             D   Em
But those white roses
        G          C
Are growing round the houses
           G             C                 G      C
That you buried under the arches all your life
 
           D         Em
Will you beg my forgiveness?
          G        C
Will you be my only witness?
          Am
To this bird in flight
 
              D    Em    G  C
Over those white, white roses
         G     C   G     C
Those white, white roses
 
 G           Em
I prayed for you
  G               Em
When no one was listening
 G            Em              Am
I helped you blow your candles out
 G        Em
So good afternoon
 G            Em
good evening and goodnight
 G        Em           Am
I didn’t want this day to end
 
             D    Em
But those white roses
       G             C
Are growing around the houses
          G             C                G     C
That you buried under the arches all your life
 
           D        Em
Will you beg my forgiveness?
          G           C
Will you be my only witness?
         Am
To this bird in flight
 
              D   Em    G   C
Over those white, white roses
         G    C     G   C
Those white, white roses
