Cm
Life is like a boat in a bottle
Try to sail you can't with no air
G#
Day by day it only gets harder
                          G
Try to scream but nobody cares

Through the glass you see the same faces
Hear their voices fade like a drum
When your life's a boat in a bottle
You're surrounded drifting alone

G#     A#      Cm
Don't leave me now
Fm            A#
Stay another day
G
With me

Chorus:
Cm
When you're sad, and no one knows it
Fm            G
I'll send you, black roses
When your heart, is dark and frozen
I'll send you, black roses

Far away we wait for each other
I'm still on that road to nowhere
Kiss yourself for me in the mirror
Tie a black rose into your hair

Don't lose your faith
Share another night
With me

Chorus
