Cmaj7     Em     Cmaj7      Em  
She's the angel on top of the tree
Cmaj7       Em              Am
Sugar-heart here she comes, she's going to fall on me
Cmaj7     Em           Cmaj7       Em
Innocence was our fire, we told the truth
Cmaj7        Em              Am    
I miss the sweet boys in the summer of their youth

CHORUS:

Tear the petals off of you...
Am                C         Em

Am                C         Em
Tear the petals off of you...

Cmaj7         Em      Cmaj7      Em  
They will make you so, so cynical
Cmaj7        Em            Am
The fire burns the flesh, destroys the best in me that's old
Cmaj7           Em            Cmaj7        Em
She's the grace of this world, she's too pure
Cmaj7       Em                   Am    
For the likes of this world, this world is a whore

They carry you down, they carry you down
  A    F     F   A

All the lilies bloomed and blossomed, wilted and they're shivering
Cmaj7             Em          Am 
I can't stop their withering, oh this world is a war
