[Verse 1]
C
Blood isn't running isn't
C/E                 Eb
Pumping in my heart
           Db
And now my need
             Bbm
For what was something is
     G7
Just something in the dark
               C
That I can see
                 C7
Is something frightening
  Ab                 Gsus4
Alive in something kind
              Fm
And they were auburn
              Cm
And they were hazel
           Gsus4
And lovely powder
                F
But now they're sable

All because...

[Chorus 1]
Cm     F
I keep growing
     C        B
Dead flowers now
        C         Fm
And the wind is blowing
  Ddim      G7
A burning gown

Around me
Cm      F
I keep finding
     C         B
Dead flowers now
            C      Am
And they're all behind me
    Db           Ebaug
And falling down

Around me

[Verse 2]

C        
The leaves are falling
            C/E
And they're calling
            Eb
Out my name
              Db
And all the birds
               Bbm
That were once singing
         G7
Are now screaming out in pain
              Ab
That I can feel
               Fm
The fruit is ripening
         Cm             G     Ab
But it's rotten to the core
          Fm
Pale rime enlightening
  F                 G
A skeleton made of ash and hoar

And so...

[Chorus 2]
Cm     F
I keep growing
     C        B
Dead flowers now
            C        Fm
And they're always blooming
    Ddim    G7
And turning brown

Around me
Cm      F
I keep finding
     C         B
Dead flowers now
            Am     F
And there's no way out
Dm       G
No beginning
               F
And there's no end
        G              A
They're all just dead again

[Verse 3]
A
Blood isn't running isn't
  A/C#        C
Pumping in my heart
           Bb
And when I sing
           Gm
About the flowers I'm just
E7
Screaming in the dark
           A
And now I feel
             Dm
The wind is blowing
            A
And they're growing
        Dm
All the time
            Ab
And all the leaves
             G
Will need to fall
              Ddim
Bind all the flowers
           Ab
Kill them all
              Db
Show me the beauty
         G
In the air
              Db
Glow ash and embers
       C
Everywhere
              Ddim
Gasping and reaving
           Ab
Breaths of air
            Bb               G7
And let the beating hearts beware

[Chorus 3]
Cm     F
I keep hiding
     C        B
Dead flowers now
         C            Fm
But they die in their thousands
  Ddim     G7
A swirling cloud

Around
         Cm           F
And this life keeps snowing
     C         B
Dead flowers now
          Ab     Fm
And I see no way out
Ddim  G
No escape

And thats why
Cm       Ab          F       D
I keep growing dead flowers now
                Eb      Cm
And now there's no way out
F     D
No escape
          Eb         F              G
And now I see them growing on their own!
