Flowers Grave

Waits Tom

            C#                           F#
Someday the silver moon and I will go to dreamland
       As                                 C#
I will close my eyes and wake up there in dreamland
                         F            Bm
And Tell me who will put flowers on a flower's grave?
F#             As
Who will say a prayer?

       C#                         F#
Will I meet a China rose there in dreamland?
        As                   C#
Or does love lie bleeding in dreamland?
               C#/C        F#
Are these days forever and always?

                 C#
And if we are to die tonight
           As           C#   C#7
Is there a moonlight up ahead?
    F#           C#
And if we are to die tonight
        As         C#
Another rose will bloom

      F#    C#
For a faded rose
               F           F#
Will I be the one that you save?
  F#           F#m
I love when it showers
    C#          F#
But no one puts flowers
C#   As       C#
On a flower's grave
       F#              C#
As one rose blooms and another will die
     As               C#  C#7
It's always been that way 
  F#           F#m
I remember the showers
    C#          F#
But no one puts flowers
C#   As       C#
On a flower's grave

    F#           C#
And if we are to die tonight
           As           C#    C#7
Is there a moonlight up ahead?
  F#           F#m
I remember the showers
    C#          F#
But no one puts flowers
C#   As       C#
On a flower's grave
