G
She doesn't know the man
D
Who tries to push her wheelchair in the sand
C
She just looks out to sea
G
He's talking endlessly
G
Oh why won't he shut up
I take my medicine
D
I crush the paper cup
C
Oh maybe he's my son
G
And he's come to set me free
G
She knows that she forgot
That there's a story and she
D
Can't recall the plot
C
Of course her family fought
G
Over the furniture
G
Oh I don't know why they
D
Have taken all my favorite things away
C
But one thing left's for sure
G
I don't know what they were
Em F
They say a stone is a marker
G
And that it has weight
Em
They say it's solid

But it can deteriorate
G
The air is like a hand
D
Reminding her of all the things she's planned
C
Like air that thought is gone
G
Never to come again
G
We came out to the beach
D
to find the mind I've lost and cannot reach
C
I used to keep it here
G
It was much cleaner then
Em F
They say a rose is a flower
G
And that it is red
Em F
It blooms it grows it wilts
D
And then it is dead
G
They say a stone is a marker
D
And that it has weight
C
They say it's solid
G
But it can deteriorate
G
They say a rose is a flower
D
And that it is red
C
It blooms it grows
G
And then it is dead
