Introduction: D G
D
Where' d all the time go?
G
It' s starting to fly.
D
See how the hands go
G
Waving goodbye.
Em A
And you know I get so forgetful
D
when I look in your eyes.
D
Now she' s walking backwards
G
through a parade.
D
And I' m stuck in the shadow
G
blocking the shade.
Em A
And there ain' t no way to sweep up the
D
mess that we' ve made
Em A
She gets dressed up like a pillow so she' s
G
always in bed
F#m Bm
Flowers for the sick and dead
G F#m Bm
She' s on the go, way too fast and way too slow
G F#m Bm
She' ll turn to stone at hospitals and funeral homes
G A
and when the fog rises somebody sighs
D
who is not in disguise anymore
D
There' s nothing to keep you
G
from falling in love.
D
It starts at the bottom
G
and comes from above.
Em A D
Like pieces of a puzzle, like a hand in a glove
Em A G
She gets dressed up like a pillow so she' s always in bed
F#m Bm
Flowers for the sick and dead
G F#m Bm
She' s on the go, way too fast and way too slow
G F#m Bm
She' ll turn and stop at hospitals and funeral homes
G A D
and when the tide rises somebody sinks and is gone in the blink of an eye
