Some Flowers Bloom Dead by The Wallflowers
words and music by Jakob Dylan
Capo III
Intro : Bm G A Bm
Bm G A D
Bm
We didn't make it
A Bm
We did not pull thru'
Bm
You shouldn't blame me
A D
I don't blame you
Bm A G
Now, what else did you think
A Bm
That I would do?
A D
As if it wasn't hard enough
Bm
I'm so tired of waking up
A Bm
Feelin' bad
Bm
You haven't been
A D
the kind of place I have
Bm A G
It couldn't hurt you now
A Bm
To let this pass
A D
As if it wasn't hard enough
D A
You wanna make it so much harder
D/F# G
Now in another world
D A
I could learn to forget
D/F# G
But 'til then I'm here
D A
Making room for new regrets
Bm A G D/F#
Now some flowers they never bloom
Em A
But some flowers just bloom dead
The way you make me feel
I could collapse
An epidemic I cannot outlast
How could you feel used
When I feel trapped?
As if it wasn't hard enough
And just as my conscience
Starts to clear
I drag the river and you're still there
The way I bring you down
Could not compare
As if it wasn't hard enough
You wanna make it so much harder
Now in another world
I could learn to forget
But 'til then I'm here
Making room for new regrets
Now some flowers they never bloom
But some flowers just bloom dead
Now some flowers they never bloom
And some flowers just bloom dead
Bridge : Em A
(Jakob throws a G in on this verse)
Bm G
The way I sleep
A Bm
This bed just can't be made
Bm A D
I pull the covers up around my head
Now when I think of me
I think of somebody else instead
As if it wasn't hard enough
You're gonna make it so much harder
Now in another world
I could learn to forget
But 'til then I'm here
Making room for new regrets
Now some flowers they never bloom
And some flowers just bloom dead
Now some flowers they never bloom
And some flowers they just bloom dead
Outro : D A D/F# G
