Intro:

Cadd9 G Cadd9 G


Verse:
     Cadd9
I took my heaviest book
    G
And I placed you inside
     Cadd9
With each breath that you took
    G
Rested soft by my side
      Cadd9
Before your petals could fall
  G
And colors would fade
   Cadd9
I'd preserve your heart
       G
And press you into the page
Cadd9
Mmm
Cadd9       G
You're my yellow rose
Cadd9
Mmm
Cadd9          G
I'll take you wherever I go
       Cadd9
And I like to think
           G
That I know what you think
        Cadd9
And I spend too long
           G
Spend too long in my dreams
      Cadd9
I'm fixated on
        G
What this could be
        Cadd9
This purpose I hope
           G
I hope that you can see
       D
I've got this pen and this paper
      Cadd9
But I don't know how I'll get there
        G
And I just want people to see
  G
To see what they need
    Cadd9
To love everyone and be free

     Cadd9
They said things would get easier
    Em
Once I made it, the money would roll in
    Cadd9       D
I know this seems impossible
   Em
This insane situation we're in
     Cadd9        D
They said things would get easier
    Em
Once I made it, the money would roll in
    Cadd9       D
I know this seems impossible
   Em
This insane situation we're in
     Cadd9
You're my rose
        Em
But this is my dream
         Cadd9
You're all that I want
       D
But what do I need?

Cadd9 G

       Cadd9
I took my heaviest book
    G

With each breath that you took
    G
Rested soft by my side
      Cadd9
Before your petals could fall
  G
And colors would fade
   Cadd9
I'd preserve your heart
       G
