Verse 1:
D
Why don't you tell me
A         Bm       D
What exactly I did wrong?
A               E
I'm open to the bones
D
And all these flowers
A                Bm        D
You trampled in the garden
              A      E
Replaced with stones

Pre-Chorus:
Bm             E       D
Looking at the two-way mirrors
      E                 F#m
White chapels and white walls
             E      Bm
Fade away to dreams
               Em7              D
Looking at the white veil falling
E               F#m
The promises we made
             A     E
The promises we'll keep
Chorus:
F#m      D           A
They set fire to the forest
            Bm               F#m
Hoping they would catch the bear
       D              A        E
I'm as guilty as they promised
Bm                          D
All the lilies did turn black
                F#m
As we weathered out the storm
        D
Keep me safe
            A
And keep me warm

Verse 2:
D
Why won't you tell me?
A             Bm         E  D
Why won't you talk to me at all?
A         E
Your face stuck to your phone
D
So we're black lilies
A                     Bm          D
Well we'll still grow without the sun
A               E
No, we won't be alone

Pre-Chorus:
Bm                             D
We walled our hearts off to them
                        F#m
Those petty high school calls
          E
Fade away to dreams
Bm                              D
Looking at the white veil falling

The promises we made

The promises we'll keep

All the lilies did turn black
