Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
In fields where nothing grew but weeds,
I found a flower at my feet,
(single strum)
Bending there in my direction,
I wrapped a hand around its stem,
I pulled until the roots gave in,
Finding there what Id been missing,
But I know
So I tell myself, I tell myself its wrong.
Theres a point we pass from which we cant return.
I felt the cold rain of the coming storm.
All because of you,
I havent slept in so long.
When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean,
Longing for the shore where I can lay my head down,
Ill follow your voice,
All you have to do is shout it out.
Inside my hands these petals browned,
Dried up, falen n to the ground
But it was already too late now.
I pushed my fingers through the earth,
Returned this flower to the dirt,
So it could live. I walked away now.
But I know
Not a day goes by that I dont feel this burn.
Theres a point we pass from which we cant return.
I felt the cold rain of the coming storm.
All because of you,
I havent slept in so long.
When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean,
Longing for the shore where I can lay my head down,
Ill follow your voice,
All you have to do is shout it out.
*solo*
rhythm guitar plays:
play on bass strings but make last "A" a power chord
All because of you,
I havent slept in so long.
When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean,
Longing for the shore where I can lay my head down,
Inside these arms of yours.
All because of you,
I believe in angels.
Not the kind with wings,
No, not the kind with halos,
The kind that bring you home,
When home becomes a strange place.
Ill follow your voice,
All you have to do is shout it out.
