Conversations With The Flowers Cifras

[Verse]
C            F          Am            G              F
Weak coffee, pre-dawn. We're sneaking out like we robbed the place
C                F             Am        G              F
Mayflower beach, July's gone. We're all alone dancing in the waves
Dm               G
I found you some sea glass
F               Fm
You always loved sea glass
C            F               Am           G              F
I see you, in the side room, chainsmoking darts in your favorite chair
C            F              Am      G          F
You tell me about the moon, or Ursa Minor, the Little Bear
Dm                   G                   F                 Fm
I peer through your telescope. I see the parts you want me to know
 
[Chorus]
F                   G             Em             F
And I'll remind the flowers every morning in the dawn
F                   G             Em             F
I'll make sure they don't forget they're wanted and they're loved
F                   G             Em             F
I'll carry what you taught me - I'll hold it close until I'm gone
Dm                   G                   C
I'll sleep in peace. I'll wake in light. I'll soldier on
 
[Verse]
C                        F                     Am      G              F
They should name you the Saint of Patience for all the shit that you put up with
C              F            Am           G              F
Still awake at 3 a.m. since you couldn't sleep 'til the kids were in
Dm                   G                F                    Fm
And I sip slow on a Barry's Tea, the kind that you'd always make for me
C                         F         Am             G            F
In your dress shoes and a bathrobe, lost in a blue plume of Pall Mall smoke
C           F                        Am        G          F
You tell a story that doesn't end, so I laugh along with you as you go
Dm                  G          F    Fm
'Cause your idea of heaven is us at 187
 
[Chorus]
F                   G             Em             F
And I'll remind the flowers every morning in the dawn
F                   G             Em             F
I'll make sure they don't forget they're wanted and they're loved
F                   G             Em             F
I'll carry what you taught me - I'll hold it close until I'm gone
Dm                   G                   C
I'll sleep in peace. I'll wake in light. I'll soldier on
Dm                   G                   C
I'll sleep in peace. I'll wake in light. I'll soldier on
