Tuning: Half Step Down
Intro
Dm Dm Am7 Am7
Verse
Dm A#
In fields where nothing grew but weeds,
F
I found a flower at my feet,
C G
Bending there in my direction,
Dm A#
I wrapped a hand around its stem,
F
I pulled until the roots gave in,
C G
Finding there what I'd been missing,
Pre Chorus
A#
But I know...
Dm F A#
So I tell myself, I tell myself it's wrong.
Dm F A#
There's a point we pass from which we can't return.
A# Am7 G
I felt the cold rain of the coming storm.
Chorus
Dm
All because of you,
F
I haven't slept in so long.
C A#
When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean,
Dm F
Longing for the shore where I can lay my head down,
C
I'll follow your voice,
A#
All you have to do is shout it out.

Verse
Dm A#
Inside my hands these petals browned,
F
Dried up, fallen to the ground
C G
But it was already too late now.
Dm A#
I pushed my fingers through the earth,
F
Returned this flower to the dirt,
C G
So it could live. I walked away now.
Pre Chorus
A#
But I know...
Dm F A#
Not a day goes by that I don't feel this burn.
Dm F A#
There's a point we pass from which we can't return.
A# Am7 G
I felt the cold rain of the coming storm.
Chorus
Dm
All because of you,
F
I haven't slept in so long,
C A#
When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean,
Dm F
Longing for the shore where I can lay my head down,

I'll follow your voice,

All you have to do is shout it out.

Chorus
Dm
All because of you,
F
I haven't slept in so long.
C A#
When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean,
Dm F
Longing for the shore where I can lay my head down,
C A#
Inside these arms of yours.
Dm
All because of you,
F
I believe in angels.
C
Not the kind with wings,
A#
No, not the kind with halos,
Dm
The kind that bring you home,
F
When home becomes a strange place.
C
I'll follow your voice,
A#
All you have to do is shout it out.
