all completely accurate except the intro is hard to replicate with just one guitar 
but I'm pretty damn close.

DWhere'd (xx0232@1)all the time go?
                 GIt's (320003@1)starting to fly.
DSee (xx0232@1)how the hands go;
            GWaving (320003@1)goodbye.

Em (022000@1)                  AAnd (x02220@1)you know I get so forgetful
                     Dwhen (xx0232@1)I look in your eyes.

DNow (xx0232@1)she's walking backwards
            Gthrough (320003@1)a parade.
DAnd (xx0232@1)I'm stuck in the shadow
              Gblocking (320003@1)the shade.

Em (022000@1)                       AAnd (x02220@1)there ain't no way to sweep up the 
                 Dmess (xx0232@1)that we've made
Em (022000@1)                       AShe (x02220@1)gets dressed up like a pillow so she's 
           Galways (320003@1)in bed
                F#m (244222@1)   bm
Flowers for the sick and dead
             G (320003@1)                 F#m (244222@1)  bm
She's on the go, way too fast and way too slow
             G (320003@1)                      F#m (244222@1) bm
She'll turn to stone at hospitals and funeral homes
             G (320003@1)         Aand (x02220@1)when the fog rises somebody sighs 
                          Dwho (xx0232@1)is not in disguise anymore

There's nothing to keep you 
from falling in love.
It starts at the bottom 
and comes from above. 

Like pieces of a puzzle, like a hand in a glove
She gets dressed up like a pillow so she's always in bed

Flowers for the sick and dead
She's on the go, way too fast and way too slow
She'll turn and stop at hospitals and funeral homes
and when the tide rises somebody sinks and is gone in the blink of an eye

(you're on your own with the solo part)
