Lana Del Rey - Violets for Roses: chords

A#
There's something in the air
     Cm                                  A#
The girls are running around in summer dresses
            Gm
With their masks off
        Dm         D#
And it makes me so happy
A#                             D#            A#
Larchmont Village smells like lilies of the valley
         F
and the bookstore doors
                      D#      F
are opening and it's finally happening


D#
Ever since I fell out of love
Cm                       F        A#
With you I feel back in love with me
     Cm                F
And boy does it feel sweet
Like a summer breeze

D#
Ever since I fell out of love
Cm                       F             A#
With you I feel back in love with the sea
          D#
Like the Paramount sign sparkling
  D             Gm   F
Sparkling just for me

Chorus:
A#                    Cm         Gm
You made me trade my violets for roses
A#                          D        D#
You tried to trade my new truck for Rollses
A#                          D#             Dm
Don't forget all of these things that you love
        Cm                D#
Are the same things I hate
D#               F
The simple life, I chose this
A#                    Cm          Gm
You made me trade my violets for roses
A#                         D          D#
You tried to take all the pink off my toes and
A#                          D#       Dm
God knows the only mistake that I'm making
   Cm                   D
Is tryna make a woman change
                           D#
And trade the violets for roses

A#       F
Aaah - aah
           D           D#
Trade the violets for roses
 A#      F
Aaah - aah

There's something in the air
I hope it doesn't change, that it's for real
The beginning of something big happening
And by the Merthys Alleys
In the streets have ceased
And still, the shadows haunt the avenue
The silence is deafening

Ever since I fell out of love with you,
I fell back in love with the streets
And, God, does it feel sweet
Like a summer breeze
Ever since I fell out of love with you,
I breakdance to the backbeat
And, God, does it sound sweet
Like it's playing just for me

Chorus:
You made me trade my violets for roses
You tried to trade in my new truck for Rollses
Don't forget all of these things that
you love are the same things I hate
A simple life, I chose this
You made me trade my violets for roses
You tried to take all the pink off my toes, and
God knows the only mistake that a man can make
Is tryin' to make a woman change
and trade her violets for roses

Ah-la-ha, ah-ha
Trade her violets for roses
Ah-la-ha, ah-ha
Trade her violets for roses
(Ah-la-ha, ah-ha)

There's something in the air
The girls are runnin' 'round in summer dresses
With their masks off and it makes me so happy
