[C][Em][Bsus4][Em]

[Verse 1]
It rained the whole day he [Em]spent
at his lover's grave
Said his goodbyes [B]to her family
[Em]and friends
Packed [Am]his things in a [Em]rusted car
And rode off in [B]the rain
[Em]Came upon a church in ruin
With an old [B]man [Em]dwelling with[B]in[Em][B]
[C#m][Em][B][C#m][Em][F#sus4][Em]
Who said, "watch where you stray my friend"
[B][Em][B][Em][Am][Em]
[B][Am][Em][B][Em]
Old man spoke of meanings
lost and without name
Never shifting from their worn
and weathered [B]place
[Em]What was found[Am] in the endl[Em]ess search
For [B]truth be[Em]hind [B]the tale
[Em]Beneath the ash and ember lies only one story
to [C#m]tell[Em][C#m][Em][C#m]
[Em]
Watch where you stray my
[Bsus4]friend[Em]
There's a flower that grows [C]in a [Em]cave
[C]So [Em]lovely to see but n[Am]eed[Em]
to be saved
Its' beautiful blossom will wither and die
If [C]ever [Em]this[B] flower [Em]leave the
[F#sus4]dark ness [Em]for da[C]yl[Em]ight
