[D]
I can hardly bear the sight of lipstick on the cigarettes there in your ashtray
Lying cold away you left them, but at least your lips caressed them while you packed
[G] And a lip print on a half-filled cup of coffee that I poured [D] and didn't drink
[A] But at least you thought you wanted it, and that's so much more than I can [D] say for me
It's been a good [G] year for the Rose [A] Bay, and many blooms still [D] linger there
The lawn could stand [Em] another low end, [A] funny I [D] don't even care
And when you turn to [G] walk away, [A] as the door [G] behind you [D] closes
The only thing I [Em] know to say
[A] It's been a good year [D] for the Rose Bay
[Em] [A]
[D] [A] [D]
[G] After three full years of marriage, it's the first time [C] that I haven't [G] made the [Bm] bed
[G]
I guess the reason we're not parking there's so little [C] left to say, [G] and we haven't said
[Dm]
And [C] while a million thoughts go racing through my mind, I find I haven't [G] spoke a word
And from [D] the bedroom the familiar sound of our one baby's crying [G] goes unheard
[D] But what a good year [G] for the Rose [A] Bay, and many blooms still [D] linger there
The lawn could stand [Em] another low end, [A] funny I don't [D] even care
And when you turn to [G] walk [A] away, as the door behind [G] you [D] closes
The only thing I [Em] know to say
[A] It's been a good year [D] for the Rose Bay
The only thing I [Em] know to say
[A] It's been a good year for the [D] Rose Bay
