[Verse 1]
D      D     Bm         Bm
I keep every word you said
D   D               F#m          F#m
Wildflowers growing up around my bed
G         G    A  A              D
All those words   blooming in my head

[Verse 2]
D       D         Bm     Bm
I don't need much only truth
D        D           F#m          F#m
Just the thoughts that come to you
G        G       A       A          D         D
You make poetry, no one reaches me like you do

[Pre-Chorus]
         Bm  Bm  A  A
And it's all
     Bm Bm A  A
Only syllables
         G    G           A          D    D
But your words, they will make or break me

[Chorus]
D
Sticks and stones
A
 Bruise my bones
Bm             G
 But your words will save me
D
Sticks and stones
A
 Bruise my bones
Bm         G
 But I need your words
D                       A
 I don't want to live without you
Bm                    G
 Don't want to live without you

|D  |A  |Bm  |G  |

D                 A               Bm  G  G
 Your words, your words, your words

[Verse 3]
D      D     Bm         Bm
I keep every word you said
D           D        F#m           F#m
String them all on invisible thread
G         G
All those little pearls
A   A              D
  Shining round my neck
D   D            D
  Blooming in my head

[Outro]
D   D              D   D
  Shining round my neck
D   D            D   D
  Blooming in my head
