[Intro] A Asus2 Em Asus2 (x2) [Verse 1]
A                    A7sus2
What I wanted was to fall asleep

A                 A7sus2
Close my eyes and disappear

A                 A7sus2                     A    A7sus2
Like a petal on a stream, a feather on the air

A              A7sus2
Lily white and poppy red

A               G
I trembled as he laid me out

A                A7sus2                         G   A
You won't feel a thing, he said, when you go down

G                      D A Em
Nothing gonna wake you now
[Bridge] G Em A Asus2 Em G A [Verse 2]
A                A7sus2
Dreams are sweet, until they're not

A            A7sus2
Men are kind, until they aren't

A              A7sus2                   A Em
Flowers bloom, until they rot, and fall apart

Asus2       A7
Is anybody listening?

   Em               A
I open my mouth and nothing comes out

A        Asus2             G       A  Em
Nothing, nothing gonna wake me now
[Bridge] G Em A A7sus2 Em G A [Verse 3]
D*       A*         Em       D*
Flowers, I remember fields of flowers

A*              Asus2*
Soft beneath my heels

A    A7sus2   A
Walking in the sun,

D*
I remember someone

A       Asus2    A
Someone by my side,

D*
turned his face to mine

    A*      Asus2     A
And then I turned away,

D*                 Asus2
into the shade
[Bridge] A Asus2 A Em A Asus2 A Em [Outro]
A             Em    A
You, the one I left behind

            Em
If you ever walk this way

A*       Em*     G            Em    A*
Come and find me lying in the bed I made
