verse:

A5             E5
rainy bodega roses
                F#5
the shop never closes
                       D5
they change shifts at dawn.
A5                     E5
even in the smallest hours
                 F#5
fresh-cut red flowers
                D5
but you just walk on


refrain:
    F#5              E5
my love, my grey-eyed city child,
    F#5
we could?ve grown wild,
     D5
we could?ve grown wild.
     A5             E5
But this is what we chose,
    F#5
the endless night,
    D5           A5  E5  A5
the bodega rose


verse:

      A5                      E5
odd shadows of trees in the park
                   F#5
claim the darkest dark
        D5
while we sleep
A5                    E5
tangled beneath the covers
                 F#5    
tangled in each other
                 D5
and try to dream deep


refrain


verse:

A5                     E5 
silence is wedded to south
                          F#5
that comes up through the ground
            D5
singing for us
     A5                       E5
but few things move us like before
            F#5
nothing anymore
                   D5
is what it once was


refrain 2x


outro:

F#5                       D5
   and it was no kind of test
         A5          E5
we just chose the loneliness
       A5
we bore the best
