As recorded by Gwen Stefani (2024 release) [Intro] G D Cmaj7 G D Cmaj7 [Verse 1]
         G     D
I was an empty vase

     Cmaj7
Just sitting on the counter

        G      D
I was a dream erased

Cmaj7
I lost all my power

Em          D
Lies, lies, night after night

  Cmaj7
I couldn't see the hope with the tears in my eyes

Em     D              Cmaj7
Then I watched the sunrise

Cmaj7
For the first time
[Chorus]
G                   D                 Em        Cmaj7
'Cause you went and filled this empty vase with flowers

G                 D                  Em            Cmaj7
You showed up and filled this lonely space and now you're

          G                     D
Giving me love that I wanna get trapped in

        Em                    C
Like I imagined, but it never happened

  G                D                 Em           C
Until you went and filled this empty vase with flowers
[Verse 2]
              G      D
The seeds are in the ground

  C
I pray it rains in April

             G                       D
I've been to church but you were the first

                   C
To show me what it means to be faithful

Em              D
Why, why did it take so much time?

       C
You've always been the one I've been trying to find

Em            D             C     Cm
I know you'll raise my sons right
[Chorus]
G                   D                 Em        Cmaj7
'Cause you went and filled this empty vase with flowers

G                 D                  Em            Cmaj7
You showed up and filled this lonely space and now you're

          G                     D
Giving me love that I wanna get trapped in

        Em                    C
Like I imagined, but it never happened

  G                D                 Em           C
Until you went and filled this empty vase with flowers
[Bridge]
     Am
I'll grow with you

           C
And you'll grow with me

Em         D
Love cures everything

C
I know it does
[Chorus]
G                   D                 Em        Cmaj7
'Cause you went and filled this empty vase with flowers

G                 D                  Em            Cmaj7
You showed up and filled this lonely space and now you're

          G                     D
Giving me love that I wanna get trapped in

        Em                    C
Like I imagined, but it never happened

  G                D                 Em           C  G
Until you went and filled this empty vase with flowers
[Outro]
   D        Em
Flowers, flowers

C             G
And giving me love

   D        Em C
Flowers, flowers
