[Intro]
E B G#m
(White roses in the red dirt)
F#
(You said it's so beautiful it--)
[Chorus]
E
White roses in the red dirt
B
You said it's so beautiful, it hurts
G#m
And I knew it and my heart burst
F#
I said it was beautiful at first but
C#m
White roses in the red dirt
B
You said it's so beautiful, it hurts
G#m
And I knew it and my heart burst
F#
You're so much more than I deserve but
[Verse 1]
E B
Long ago, probably in a galaxy not far from home
G#m
I bet there's a version where we're happier
F#
And I didn't have to find a way to go
E
Oh, wouldn't that be lovely? You would torture me
B
Whisper me the reasons that you hated me
G#m
Say it in the way that makes my knees go weak
F#
And let me dangle from you like a piece of meat
F#
Oh, wouldn't that be lovely?
[Pre-Chorus]
B
But I think we're formed from old Lego
C#m
In a bedside drawer where the stray things go
G#m
And I think we're formed from old play-doh
F#
That you stole one night from a corner store and
[Chorus]
E
White roses in the red dirt
B
You said it's so beautiful, it hurts
G#m
And I knew it and my heart burst
F#
I said it was beautiful at first but
[Verse 2]
E
One day you'll move on, put me in a drawer
B
I'll just be a ghost in photos on your phone
G#m
And you'll see a sunny side, shows I never liked
F#
You can put them on, put the clap track in your life
E
'Cause I lose all your socks, I tremble when I talk
B
I veer left when I walk, really, this is what you want?
G#m
'Cause you'll find a better one, someone functional
F#
And slowly, I'll dissolve into echoes in your walls
[Pre-Chorus]
E
But I think we're formed from old Lego
F#
In a bedside drawer where the stray things go
B/D#
And I think we're formed from old play-doh
E
That you stole one night from a corner store and
[Chorus]
E
White roses in the red dirt

You said it's so beautiful, it hurts

I said it was beautiful at first but

White roses in the red dirt
B
You said it's so beautiful, it hurts
G#m
And I knew it and my heart burst
F#
You're so much more than I deserve but
[Bridge]
E
I'm a dreamer too, I'm a dreamer too
F#
Paint over the sad bits, I know that you do, 'cause
G#m
Mmm, everlasting in a different moon
B
There's a perfect side to me and you
[Chorus]
E
White roses in the red dirt
B
You said it's so beautiful, it hurts
G#m
And I knew it and my heart burst
F#
I said it was beautiful at first but
C#m7
White roses in the red dirt

You said it's so beautiful, it hurts

And I knew it and my heart burst

You're so much more than I deserve but
