Verse 1:
C                                    Dm
You can look at a rose, just any rose
Dm
Accept that it's perfect
                     G
Let it dry on the wall

But what is its purpose?
                   F C
What is its purpose?


Verse 2:
C                                        Dm
I could take in your eyes, Still never know

Bathe in the wind
                       G
to just watch it blow

to Find that it's curtains
                   F
It's curtains for me


Refrain 1:
F
It’s curtains for me
          C
It's curtains


Verse 2:
C                                       Dm
you were covered in ash, Holding our bones

Called out their names
                     G
Words just felt cold

They never came home
               F  F C
Never came home


Verse 4:
C                                        Dm
harbor the truth, was I talking in tongues

Smoke covers my eyes
               G
Covers the sun

Did you learn how to run
                 F
Twisted up vines


Refrain 2:
F
it's carved itself in
        C
It's carved


Bridge:
C                                              Dm
I could take on your lies, Admit that I’m wrong

That there was a place
                               G
That you looked at those stones

you built up a wall
                   F
To hide yourself in

To hide yourself in
      C
You hide


Outro:
C                                     Dm
I could look at a rose, unlike any rose

petals will fall
                         G
something something grows?

How you look at the surface
                                 F
Its just Flowers mixed with leaves

Flowers mixed with leaves
      C
Flowers
