[G]
[Am] [F] [Am]
[F]
[G] [Am] And they [Dm] were [Am] imagining roses
[Em]
[Am] As if life [F] [E] itself were a dream
There's [Bb] a goodnight [Am] reason for living
Not [Dm] enough, [E] not enough so it seems
[Dm] Lost to the [C] stars, Venus and [E] Mars
And I'm in [Am] heaven again
[Dm] I'll bring to you [Am] the world's [E] tattoos
I've been [Am] better than that
If all of the dead are now living
Then all [Dm] of the [E] living will die
[Dm] Buying their [C] tickets and changing their [B] trains
And [E] to [Am] see the end at home [Dm] again
I'll bring to [Am] you the world's [E] tattoos
I'm the [Am] invisible [G] man
[Am] Bride a la Rosa, [G] y al hombre [Am] que no vive
[G] Perdido [Am] en un sueño, en [G] una [Am] mortera imposible
[G] [Am] Una rosa, [G] [Am] [G]
[Am] una [G] rosa, fue que [Am]
imposible
[G] Sabas [Am] con lo [G] mío que hay [Am] resistirte
[G] La cueva es [Am] de la Rosa, vino [G] el hombre [Am] es invisible

[B] [G]
[Am] I haven't seen you for ages
[B] Coming down [E] out of the rain
Open [Dm] the doorway [Am] and climb up the stairs
This [B] is the [E] bedroom where we set our [Dm] prayers
I'll bring to you [Am] the world's tattoos
[E] I'm the invisible [A] man
[Dm] The singer's [Am] playing, fly me to the [E] moon
And I'm in [Am] heaven again
[G] [Am] Bride a la Rosa, [G] y al hombre [Am] que no vive
[G] [Am] Perdido en un sueño, en [G] una mortera [Am] imposible
[G] [Am] Una rosa, [G] fue [Am] que imposible
[G] [Am] Una rosa, [G]
[Am] fue que imposible
[G] Sabes con [Am]
lo mío [G] que [Am] hay resistirte
[G] La cueva es [Am] de la Rosa, vino [G] el hombre es [Am] invisible
[G] [Am] Una rosa, [G]

Only our [Am] rose tattoos
