Asking for Flowers
Kathleen Edwards


Capo on second fret 

GIt's (320003@1)complicated, technically I'm certified

CA (x32010@1)walking declaration, of everything I couldn't get right

GTime (320003@1)is just an anchor, But 7 years I think I am right

CNow (x32010@1)you've changed your number, it's like a noose around my life

EmEvery (022000@1)pill I took in vain, 
Cevery (x32010@1)meal for your I made, 

Am.................... C  D
every penny I put away,

C..................G
Asking for flowers, 

D............................Am
is like asking you to be nice

Em.............................C
Don't tell me you are too tired, 

Am...............................C   G
10 years I've been working nights


GMy (320003@1)life's like a picture left out in the sun too long

CNow (x32010@1)I'm trying to remember all the faces of the names I've Loved

GAnd (320003@1)all that's left of me now is a cigarette burning bright

CAnd (x32010@1)a fading memory of all the things I tried to get right

(Chorus)
