[Verse 1] G G It's a beautiful day, she's been crying all night Am Ah, there's tears in her blue, bloodshot in mine D/F# This bender's been bending, it's hellbound to break My baby's had all she can take Am D/F# Mister, I'll take your roses

[Chorus] G D/F# Em If you cut off the thorns, she can't take no more Am D/F# I'll buy violets and daisies to hide all the crazy G D/F# Em It's gonna take all you've got Am Ah, it's a bad day for love D/F# G But a good day for flower shops

[Verse 2] G Well, I took some pills and she took the dogs Am Ah, it's all gone to hell, she's gone to her mom's D/F# And I took up drinkin' since she took the time To tell me I took the best years of her life Am D/F# So buddy, I'll take your roses

[Chorus] G D/F# Em If you cut off the thorns, she can't take no more Am D/F# I'll buy violets and daisies to hide all the crazy G D/F# Em It's gonna take all you've got Am It's a tough day for love D/F# G But a good day for flower shops

[Bridge] Am D/F# G D/F# Em Am D/F# Roses are red, violets are blue G D/F# Em Am D/F# I don't need one, I need one million to get you G Am D/F# So mister, I'll take your roses

[Chorus] G D/F# Em If you cut off the thorns, she can't take no more Am D/F# I'll buy violets and daisies to get back my baby G D/F# Em It's gonna take all you've got Am D/F# Ah, it's a bad day for love G But a good day for flower shops

[Outro] G
