 Em                   C
Life is no garden of roses
 Am                     B7
More like a thistle in time
Sailing past
Waiting for no one this time
Sailing fast
Waiting for no one this time

 G               C              Em
Now that you've killed me with your eyes
  G          C       Em
Why did you push me away
 G          C          Em
How will I make it without you
 G          C        Em
How will I go on my way

Chorus:
G          D    Bm          Em
Everthing feels cold in the winter
G          D    Bm  Em
Everthing feels cold
G          D    Bm          Em
Everthing feels cold in the winter
G          D    Bm  Em
Everthing feels cold

Life is a garden of roses
Roses just wither and die

Now that you've killed me with your eyes
Why did you push me away?
How will I make it without you?
How will I go on my way?

Life is a garden of roses
Roses just wither and die
