Asking for Flowers Kathleen Edwards

Capo on second fret

[G]It?s complicated, technically I?m certified

[C]A walking declaration, of everything I couldn?t get right

[G]Time is just an anchor, But 7 years I think I am right

[C]Now you?ve changed your number, it?s like a noose around my life

[Em]Every pill I took in vain,

[C]every meal for your I made,

Am.................... C D

every penny I put away,

C..................G

Asking for flowers,

D............................Am

is like asking you to be nice

Em.............................C

Don?t tell me you are too tired,

Am...............................C G

10 years I?ve been working nights

[G]My life?s like a picture left out in the sun too long

[C]Now I?m trying to remember all the faces of the names I?ve Loved

[G]And all that?s left of me now is a cigarette burning bright

[C]And a fading memory of all the things I tried to get right

(Chorus)

chours
(for)1st chours only Every pill I took in vain
Every meal for you I made
Every penny I put away

Asking for flowers
Is like asking you to be nice
Don't tell me you're too tired
10 years I've been working nights

My life is like a picture left out too long in the sun
Now I'm trying to remember
all the faces of the names i've loved
And all that's left of me now
is cigarette burning bright
And a fading memory of
all the things I tried to get right

Every pill I took in vain
Every meal for you I made
Every plan i tried to make
Asking for flowers
Is like asking you to be nice
Don't tell me you're too tired
10 years I've been working nights

Every pill I took in vain
Every meal for you I made
Every bill I went and paid
Every card I signed my name
Every time I poured my heart out
Every threat you made to move out
Every cruel word you let just slip out
Every cruel word you let just slip out

Asking for flowers
Is like asking you to be nice
Don't tell me you're too tired
10 years I've been working nights
