[G] Paper [C] roses [D] paper [G] roses
[Em] Oh how [Am] real those roses [D7] seem to [G] be [D] [D7]
{eos}
I [G] realized the way your eyes de-[D7]ceived me
With tender looks that I mistook for [G] love
So take away the flowers that you [C] gave me
And [D7] send the kind that you remind me [G] of
[G] Paper [C] roses [D] paper [G] roses
Oh how [Am] real those roses [D7] seem to [G] be [G7]
But they're [C] only [D] imi-[G] tation [Em]
Like your [Am] imitation [D7] love for [G] me
{c: ignoring one tone key change}
[G] I thought that you would be a perfect [D7] lover
You seemed so full of sweetness at the [G] start
But like a big red rose that's made of [C] paper
There [D7] isn't any sweetness in your [G] heart
[G] Paper [C] roses [D] paper [G] roses
Oh how [Am] real those roses [D7] seem to [G] be [G7]
But they're [C] only [D] imi-[G]tation [Em]
Like your [Am] imitation [Am7] love [D] for [G] me
