Paper Roses

• G

  G        Am7       G       G/F#    D 
I re - a - lize the way your eyes deceived me, 
 
     D7      Am7       D7   Cdim       G 
With tender looks that I mistook for love. 
 
    G    G/F#     Em    Bm7/5      C   C/B   Am7   Am7/G 
So take away the flowers that you gave me 
 
      D      Am7        D7    Cdim    G    Am7     G 
And send the kind that you remind me of. 
 
 
Refrain: 
 
G7     C   C/B   Am7  Am7/G  G    G/F#   Em     
Paper ro - ses,        paper ro - ses; 
 
G/B     C         C/B   Am7      G 
Oh how real those roses seem to be. 
 
G7          C   C/B   Am7   Am7/G     G    G/F#   Em 
But they're on - ly          im - i - ta - tion, 
 
G/B       Am7    Am7/G       D7    D9  G            
Like your im - i - ta - tion love for me. 
 
 
     G          Am7      G    G/F#     D 
I thought that you would be a perfect lover; 
 
     D7       Am7       D7     Cdim      G 
You seemed so full of sweetness at the start. 
 
     G     G/F#     Em        Bm7/5    C    C/B   Am7   Am7/G 
But like a big red rose that's made of pa - per, 
 
       D    Am7  D7      Cdim       G    Am7     G 
There isn't any sweetness in your heart. 
 
 
Repeat Refrain: 
 
 
Coda: 
 
G/B       Am7    Am7/G       D7    D9  G            
Like your im - i - ta - tion love for me.
