[Verse 1-1]
Asus2       A6add9        A7sus2      A6add9
     What I wanted was to fall  asleep
Asus2     A6add9
     Close      my eyes,
A7sus2             A6add9
      and disappear
Asus2       A6add9        A7sus2  A6add9         Asus2 A6add9 A7sus2 A6add9
     Like a petal on a stream,  a feather on the air

[Verse 1-2]
Asus2     A6add9  A7sus2        A6add9
     Lily white and     poppy red     
Asus2      A6add9        A7sus2     A6add9
     I trembled  when he laid me out
Asus2          A6add9  A7sus2
     You won't feel  a thing, he said,
A6add9            Asus2 A6add9 A7sus2 A6add9
      when you go do_________wn

[Verse 2-1]
Asus2           A6add9
     Dreams are sweet
A7sus2     A6add9
      until      they're not
Asus2        A6add9
     Men are kind
A7sus2                 A6add9
      until they aren't
Asus2        A6add9  A7sus2        A6add9          Asus2 A6add9 A7sus2 A6add9
     Flowers bloom until   they rot      and fall apart

[Verse 2-2]
Asus2   A6add9  A7sus2    A6add9
     Is anybody listening?
Asus2        A6add9    A7sus2           A6add9
I    open my mouth and nothing comes out
Asus2       A6add9
     Nothing
A7sus2        A6add9 Asus2  A6add9
Nothing gonna wake  me    no

 Flowers, soft beneath my heels

Walking in  the sun

Someone by  my side

 Turned his face to mine
F#m7           E/G#    A
    And then I turned away

 Into the shade

Asus2            A6add9   A7sus2          A6add9  A
     Come and find     me lying in the bed      I made
