Fading Like A Flower Guitar Chords

Capo Fifth Fret

In a [Am] time
Where the [Em] sun descends [Am] alone,
I ran a [C] long, long [G] way from [Am] home
To find a [Em] heart that’s made of [D] stone.

I will [Am] try,
I just [Em] need a little [Am] time
To get your [C] face right [G] out of my [Am] mind,
To see the [Em] world through different [D] eyes.

[C] Every time I [F] see you,
oh I [Am] try to [G] hide away,
[C] But when we [F] meet it seems
I [G] can’t let [G] go.
[C] Every time you [F] leave the room
I [Am] feel I’m [G] fading like a [F] flower… [G]

Tell me [Am] why
When I [Em] scream there’s no reply [Am] ,
When I [C] reach out there’s [G] nothing to [Am] find,
When I [Em] sleep I break down and [D] cry,
[D] Cry, yeah.

[C] Every time I [F] see you,
oh I [Am] try to [G] hide away,
[C] But when we [F] meet
it seems I [G] can’t let [G] go.
[C] Every time you [F] leave the room
I [Am] feel I’m [G] fading like a [F] flower… [G]

Fading like a [Am] rose [G] .. [C] .. [F]
Fading like a [Am] rose [G] .. [C] .. [F]
Beaten by the [Am] storm [G] .. [C] .. [F]
Talking to myself [E] ,
Getting washed by the [E7] rain,
It’s such a cold, cold [Am] town.
[C] Oh, it’s such a [G] cold, cold [Am] town.
