Maria Taylor - Orchids
Capo 9
When strumming the chords miss the first string (Highest string) and pull back up
on the second. I think that's how Maria plays it.
Intro:
G x4
G Am
I won't get mad and I won't break in two
G C
Because I understand you
G
Now take this change
Am
And let my clothes soak with rain
G C
As I study orchid blooms
Am G
And some can't live
C G
Unless they feed on fallen leaves
Am
And so you'll let me down
C
To come alive
G
When you comfort me
Break: G x 4 (Now bringing in the first string and then taking it back out when
the lyrics start again)
G
I've watched you change
Am
I've heard your words rearrange
G C
Played back from the start
G Am
And if I did teach you anything at all
G C
I hope it was to love with all your heart
Am G
And they open wide
C G
With imperfect symmetry
Am
And so you'll love like you
C G
And I will love like me
Break: G G G G x5
Am G
And to be reborn
C G
They have to go to sea
Am C G
And so, angel, you will have to set me free
