ROSE COLORED GLASSES
John Conlee


[E] I don't know why I [A] keep on [B] believin you [E] need me,

When you [B] prove so many times that it ain't true,

kAnd I con't [E] find one good [A] reason for [B] staying,

[A] Maybe by [B] leaving would be the best for [E] you,


But [E] these rose [A] colored [B] glasses, that [E] I'm [A] looking [B]
through,

[E] Show [A] only the [B] beauty, cause they [E] hide [A] all the [B] truth,


And they [E] let me hold [A] on to the good [B] times, the good [A] lines,

The [B] ones I used to hear when I held you,

And they [E] keep me from [A] feeling so [B] cheated, [A] defeated,

When [B] reflections in your eyes show me a fool


[E] These rose [A] colored [B] glasses, that [E] I'm [A] looking [B] through,

[E] Show [A] only the [B] beauty, cause they [E] hide [A] all the [B] truth,


So I just [E] keep on [A] hope-in, [B] believin that [A] maybe,

By [B] countin the many times I've tried,

You'll [E] believe me when I [A] say I [B] love you and

I'll [A] lay these [B] rose colored glasses [E] aside,


These rose [A] colored [B] glasses, that [E] I'm [A] looking [B] through,

[E] Show [A] only the [B] beauty, cause they [E] hide [A] all the [B] truth,
