Verse:
A       Em7
What I wanted was to fall asleep
 A       Em7
Close my eyes and disappear
 A         Em7            A Em7
Like a petal on a stream, a feather on the air
 A     Em7
Lily white and poppy red
 A        G
I trembled when he laid me out
 A              G         A D
You won't feel a thing, he said, when you go down
 G            D A
Nothing gonna wake you now

G A G A G A

 A         Em7
Dreams are sweet until they're not
 A      Em7
Men are kind until they aren't
 A       Em7            A D
Flowers bloom until they rot and fall apart
 A     D
Is anybody listening?
 A       Em7
I open my mouth and nothing comes out
 A
Nothing
 A    D       A
Nothing gonna wake me now

G A G A G A

Verse:
 D    A
Flowers, I remember fields
      D A      F#m
Of flowers, soft beneath my heels
        A
Walking in the sun
D
I remember someone
A
Someone by my side
 D
Turned his face to mine
  Em7
And then I turned away
D       A
Into the shade

Bm A F#m G

Outro:
 A   G
You, the one I left behind
A      G
If you ever walk this way
A*    G*    Em7         A*
Come and find me lying in the bed I made
