Verse: 
  B 
These days when we say goodnight  
       F# 
We're lying facing our own side  
Ebm                              E 
Wondering if we're in the right bed.  

       B 
We've gotten used to all the fighting  
F#                      
I walk out, you start crying  
    Ebm                              E 
And neither one of us knows what we said.  


Pre-Chorus 
Db                                  F# 
  But all that's gonna change from right now on  
   B              Abm        F#     Ebm 
I won't give up until we're back in love.  

 
                E      F#          B 
Can we put the petals back on the rose?  
           E                   F# 
It's been you and me and this stem of thorns  
        B            Eb 
From a long time of lows.  
 E               F# 
Sadness and frustration.  
     B                   Abm 
Sometimes that's how it goes.  
           Dbm 
But baby tonight  
    B               E      F#          B 
I start to put the petals back on the rose.  



Instrumental: 
B F# E    B F# E 


Verse: 
   B 
I haven't been the man I promised I'd be  
    F# 
To fight for us and not for me  
   Ebm                              E 
If every choice I made pushed you away  

    B 
And I don't wanna let you go  
       F# 
'Cause I didn't do all I know  
   Ebm 
To make you happy once again  
     E 
And stay, stay, stay  


Pre-Chorus 
Db                              F# 
  All that's gonna change from right now on  
   B              Abm         F#      Ebm 
I won't give up until you're back in love.  

 
                E      F#          B 
Can we put the petals back on the rose?  
           E                   F# 
It's been you and me and this stem of thorns  
        B            Eb 
From a long time of lows.  
 E               F# 
Sadness and frustration.  
     B                   Abm 
Sometimes that's how it goes.  
           Dbm 
But baby tonight  
    B               E      F#          B 
I start to put the petals back on the rose. 
 


BREAK: 
Abm                              Eb 
   I realize it takes more than just wanting it  
E 
 With a little work  

We don't have to quit  
          B       F# 
So baby please, please.  

You helped me lift us out and put more  

 
 E      F#          B 
Petals back on the rose.  
           E                   F# 
It's been you and me and this stem of thorns  
        B            Eb 
From a long time of lows.  
 E               F# 
Sadness and frustration.  
     B                   Abm 
Sometimes that's how it goes.  
           Dbm 
But baby tonight  
    B 
I start,  
           E         B 
Yeah I'll win your heart  
         Dbm    B 
And I'll do my part  
            E      F#          B  
To put the petals back on the rose
