Flowers Chords by Nathaniel Rateliff & Gregory Alan Isakov

[Intro]

C
 
 
[Verse]

C                       
You can look at a rose, 
            Dm
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]

C                        
I could take in your eyes, 
              Dm
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]

F
It’s curtains for me
          C
It's curtains
 
 
[Verse]

C                       
you were covered in ash, 
               Dm
Holding our bones
 
Called out their names
                     G
Words just felt cold
 
They never came home
               F  F C
Never came home
 
 
[Verse]

C                
harbor the truth, 
                       Dm
was I talking in tongues
 
Smoke covers my eyes
               G
Covers the sun
 
Did you learn how to run
                 F
Twisted up vines
 
 
[Refrain]

F
it's carved itself in
        C
It's carved
 
 
[Bridge]

C                          
I could take on your lies, 
                   Dm
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                       
I could look at a rose, 
              Dm
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
