[Verse 1]
[D]You[G] st[C]are[G] ou[D]t
in yellow eye[C]s
Larger [G]than [D]my mind
In this curse, pools of joy relax[C]ing,
[G]we [D]glide.[A]
[Am]It's [C]all [D]too beautiful for
my mind [Am]to b[C]ear[G][D]
And as we [A]shimmer [Am]in t[C]o sl[G]eep[D]
But sing the flower that [C]was
there [G]yesterday[D][A]
[D]Your eyes, which were clear in the night,
[C]in [G]the daylight, are [D]opaque
Make [A]the [Am]world[C] too l[D]onely
[Am]For the mess[G]age to s[D]lip
But between [C]the dying [D]rays [G]of peace
you [D]trip.

[C]& p[G]lay[D][A][D][C][G][D][A]
[D]The petals that were blooming
are just paper [Am]in yo[C]ur[G] hand[D][A]
[D]And your eyes, which look right through me in the night,
opaque [C]as [G]you sta[D]nd.
[A]And [Am]you [C]were t[D]oo beautiful[A]
[Am]For [G]it all t[D]o last
These visions [Am]shimmer and fade
[C]Out on [G]the gla[D]ss[G][D][G][D]
The petals were blooming and
the [C]paper [G]in your [D]hand[A]
[D]The petals were blooming,
[C]they're paper [G]in [D]your [A]hand
[D]The petals that were blooming are
just paper [C]in [G]your han[D]d[C][G][D]
You
