[Verse 1]
C# A
In fields where nothing grew but weeds,
E
I found a flower at my feet,
B F# D# D# E
(single strum)
Bending there in my direction,
C# A
I wrapped a hand around its stem,
E
I pulled until the roots gave in,
B F#
Finding there what I’d been missing,
D# D# E D# B
But I know…
C# A G# F#
So I tell myself, I tell myself it’s wrong.
G# C# A G# F#
There’s a point we pass from which we can’t return.
G# E F# A G# F#
I felt the cold rain of the coming storm.
[Hook]
C#
All because of you,
E
I haven’t slept in so long.
B A
When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean,
C# E
Longing for the shore where I can lay my head down,
B
I’ll follow your voice,
A (ring out when strum on "out")
All you have to do is shout it out.
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
C# A
Inside my hands these petals browned,
E
Dried up, falen n to the ground
B F# D# D# E
D# (single strum)
But it was already too late now.
C# A
I pushed my fingers through the earth,
E
Returned this flower to the dirt,
B F#
So it could live. I walked away now.
[Instrumental]
D# D# E D# B
But I know…
[Pre-Hook]
C# A G# F#
Not a day goes by that I don’t feel this burn.
G# C# A G# F#
There’s a point we pass from which we can’t return.
G# E F# A G# F#
I felt the cold rain of the coming storm.
[Hook]
C#
All because of you,
E
I haven’t slept in so long.
B A
When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean,
C# E
Longing for the shore where I can lay my head down,
B
I’ll follow your voice,
A (it ring out when strum on "out")
All you have to do is shout it out.

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