Candles and cut flowers Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Jerry Jeff Walker[C][G][C][G][C][G][C]
She likes [G]candles and cut flower[C]s,
[G]rearranging them for [C]hours
And [G]as she's lost [Em]in thought,
I see the [Am]girl she was
[D]I watch her[G] standing in the kit[C]chen,
Snipping [G]stems off with her scissors
[C]And hum[G]ming out a love son[Em]g,
like she [Am]always [D]does
Then the [G]flowers go in [C]vases
that ap[G]pear in all [C]the places
That [G]gives the world [Em]around her,
a little [C]wo [D]man's [G]touch

[Verse 2]
And [D]she's the kind of woman,
every [G]woman wants to be [Em]like
And [Am]every [G]man like [C]me can't
[Am]live without

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][Am][C][G][C]

[Verse 3]
Next [G]she changes out the [C]candles that
have [G]melted on the [C]mantles
From the [G]party that [Em]she
hosted, just some [Am]nights [D]ago
Then the [G]round one on the pian[C]o,
its un[G]usual for the deep [C]glow
That [G]emanates in[Em]side it,
when the [Am]wick is [D]low
And the [G]tall ones by the window,
[C]that she lik[G]es because the soft glo[C]w
[G]Gives the room a feel[Em]ing
that she's [Am]not a[D]lone
[G]

[Verse 4]
And [D]when she's not around you,
you [G]feel like something's missing
[Em]But the cand[Am]les and [G]the [C]flowers say [Am]she's[D]

[Interlude 2]

[Verse 5]
She [G]likes dinners with [C]old friends,
late- night [G]calls that come from girl[C]friends
She'll [G]listen and tell [Em]them,
if they're [Am]wrong [D]or right
Later [G]on she'll draw a hot [C]bath,
light a [G]candle, play some soft [C]jazz
[G]Melt down in the [Em]bubbles,
and the [Am]candlelight[D]
Before [G]bed she likes some white [C]wine,
says it [G]helps her mind to unwind
[C]As she rea[G]ds a little whi[Em]le and
drifts off [Am]in th[D]e night
[G]

[Verse 6]
And [D]as she lies there sleeping,
I [G]can't believe she loves [Em]me
But [Am]when [G]she says [C]she loves you,
[Am]you feel l[D]oved

[Interlude 3]

[Verse 7]
She likes [G]candles and cut flower[C]s,
rearran[G]ging them for [C]hours
And [G]as she's lost [Em]in thought,
I see the [Am]girl [D]she was
