And Tell me who will put flowers on a flower's grave?
F# (244322@1)           G#Who (xx1114@1)will say a prayer?

       C# (x43121@1)                       F#Will (244322@1)I meet a China rose there in dreamland?
        G# (xx1114@1)                 C#Or (x43121@1)does love lie bleeding in dreamland?

And if we are to die tonight
        G# (xx1114@1)       C#Another (x43121@1)rose will bloom

      F# (244322@1)  C#For (x43121@1)a faded rose
               F (133211@1)         F# (244322@1)      
Will I be the one that you save?

    C# (x43121@1)        F#But (244322@1)no one puts flowers
C# (x43121@1) G# (xx1114@1)     C# (x43121@1)On a flower's grave
 
       F# (244322@1)            C#As (x43121@1)one rose blooms and another will die 
     G# (xx1114@1)             C# (x43121@1)C#7 (x4342x@1)It's always been that way
