Capo 2nd fret
 
 
[Intro]
Em
 
 
[Verse 1]
Em
Much like Cleopatra
Em
Now I find myself plotting
Em
I dip my sails in rose water
                                Am
And I bathe my body in milk and honey
Am
Honey, later on, what are you doing?
 
 
[Chorus]
E5
Why don't you just come over?
E5
The roses smell fine
E5
I think that you deserve a break
G            A           E5
And I've got nothing but time
E5
I've filled my house with flowers
E5
Petals up to your knees
E5
You'll never smell a rose again
G       A
Without thinking 'bout me, me, me, me, me, me
                              E5
Baby, I can ruin roses for ya
 
 
[Verse 1]
Em
Much like Cleopatra
Em
I find pride in pursuing
Em
I saw you in the crowd
                            A
And now I want to be your undoing
A
Honey, later on, what are you doing?
 
 
[Chorus]
E5
Why don't you just come over?
E5
The roses smell fine
E5
I think that you deserve a break
G            A           E5
And I've got nothing but time
E5
I've filled my house with flowers
E5
Petals up to your knees
E5
You'll never smell a rose again
G       A
Without thinking 'bout me, me, me, me, me, me
                              E
Baby, I can ruin roses for ya
 
 
[Interlude]
E     G  A  E      G  A  E
 
 
[Bridge]
E
You'll never be the same again
E
Flashbacking in the supermarket
                           G      A
You'll even hate the word "baby", baby
E
Might be a little Pavlovian
E
Put a trigger warning out in the garden
                                G       A
You'll never smell a rose again without thinking
A
What are you thinking?
 
 
[Chorus]
E5
Why don't you just come over?
E5
The roses smell fine
E5
I think that you deserve a break
G            A           E5
And I've got nothing but time
E5
I've filled my house with flowers
E5
Petals up to your knees
E5
You'll never smell a rose again
G       A
Without thinking 'bout me, me, me, me, me, me
                              E
Baby, I can ruin roses for ya
 
 
[Outro]
E      G
  Hey
A   E
Let me
E              G
Let me, let me
           A         E
I can ruin roses for ya
