Plastic Flowers

G Cadd9 G Cadd9


[Verse 1]

G                              Cadd9
    I've been watering plastic flowers
              G                         Cadd9
the kind that never grow but never fade away
    G                               Cadd9
You found them in the graveyard you put them in my hands
            G                  Cadd9
and they're still by my side today
G                               Cadd9
    If they gather dust you can wash them with your tears
G                               Cadd9
    If they gather dust you can wash them with your tears
G                                          Cadd9
    When they start to gather dust you can wash them with your tears
           G                        Cadd9
They never grow but they never disappear
           G                        Cadd9
They never grow but they never disappear


[Pre-Chorus]

G                                    Cadd9
    You were the prettiest thing I'd ever ever seen
      G                         Cadd9
but I can't even look at you, I can't even look
G                                Cadd9
    Your voice like cotton candy whispering in my ear
      G                    Cadd9
but I can't even listen, I can't even listen
G    Cadd9
         Come back to me
G    Cadd9
         Come back to me


[Chorus]

G              Cadd9                   G               Cadd9
    Can't even look into the prettiest eyes I ever did see
G              Cadd9                             D                      Cadd9
    Can't even listen to your voice, like cotton candy whispering in my ears
       D                      Cadd9
cotton candy whispering in my ears, come back to me
G    Cadd9
         Come back to me
G    Cadd9


[Verse 2]

G                                 Cadd9
    I've been wishing on shooting stars but they were just plastic stars
G                             Cadd9
falling from the ceiling as I dream
     G                          Cadd9
They glow when you turn off the lights
    G                      Cadd9
And fade as you fall fast asleep
     G                      Cadd9
They fade as you fall fast asleep


[Pre-Chorus]

G                                    Cadd9
    You were the prettiest thing I'd ever ever seen
      G                         Cadd9
but I can't even look at you, I can't even look
G                                Cadd9
    Your voice like cotton candy whispering in my ear
      G                    Cadd9
but I can't even listen, I can't even listen

G                                    Cadd9
    You were the prettiest thing I'd ever ever ever seen
      G                            Cadd9
but I can't even look at you, no I can't even look
G                                         Cadd9
    Whispering sweet nothings like cotton candy in my ears
      G                        Cadd9
but I can't even listen, and I can't ever leave
  G                        Cadd9
I can't even listen, and I can't ever leave

G    Cadd9
         Come back to me
G    Cadd9
         Come back to me
G    Cadd9
         Come back to me
G    Cadd9
         Come back to me


[Chorus]

G              Cadd9                   G               Cadd9
    Can't even look into the prettiest eyes I ever did see
G              Cadd9                             D                      Cadd9
    Can't even listen to your voice, like cotton candy whispering in my ears

G              Cadd9                   G                Cadd9
    Can't even look into the prettiest stars I ever did see
G              Cadd9                             D                      Cadd9
    Can't even listen to your voice, like cotton candy whispering in my ears
       D                      Cadd9
Cotton candy whispering in my ears come back to me
G    Cadd9
         Come back to me
G    Cadd9

           G                             Cadd9
You made a fool of me I made a fool of myself
           G                             Cadd9
You made a fool of me I made a fool of myself
           G                             Cadd9
You made a fool of me I made a fool of myself
             G                          Cadd9
And now I'll never forget you, and I'll never forgive myself
     G                          Cadd9
I'll never forget you, and I'll never forgive myself


[Outro]

G    Cadd9
         Come back to me
G    Cadd9
         Come back to me
G    Cadd9
         Come back to me
G    Cadd9
         Come back to me
