Violets For A Dead Girl Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

 Don't Gmstray from the path

The good people say

 Well, Cmshe never did

But in a grove she lay

 The Dsnow, it was falling

 As a Bstranger passed by

 And gGmazed right into

 Her lDifeless, little eGmyes

Verse

There was something about her

The good people say

Rumours start spreading

Once started, they'll stay

She went with the wolves

A whisper goes round

Her skin was ripped and torn

The night she was found

Bridge

GmAnd on her bare breast

CmA frozen flower Gmlay

 It Gmwas a violet

CmThat's what people Gmsay

Chorus

GmViolets were your favourite flowers

CmYou always smiled when DI

 Gave them to Gmyou

 Now I sCmtand at your grave

Trembling for hours

GmMy numb hands clutch

At frozen flowers

 But flowers won't Fdo

 No more smile Gmcomes from you...

Verse

She was that kind of woman

Man loves to adore

But her tender kisses

Left me longing for more

I try to be humble

The best that I can

But there is a wolf

Hiding in every man.

Verse

It lays there waiting

And when the time's right

Love turns to hunger

In a dark grove at night.

What difference does it make

If you run, scream or cry?

When a wolf has scented the blood

All that's left is to die...

Bridge

Even if I placed a violet

Into a cold hand

Some things had to happen

There's no way to pretend

Chorus

GmViolets were your favourite flowers

CmYou always smiled when DI

 Gave them to Gmyou

 Now I sCmtand at your grave

Trembling for hours

GmMy numb hands clutch

At frozen flowers

Violets were your favourite flowers

you always smiled when I

Gave them to you

Now I stand at your grave

And grief devours

What's left of my soul

And the frozen flowers

These flowers won't do

there's no more smile coming from you...
