(Verse 1)
C         Fm                   C        Fm
I saw you dance alone down the waterline
C        Fm                    Am          G       F
You were searching for secrets lost in the setting sun
C           Fm                      C         Fm
I said just wait a while and you'll understand
C       Fm                  Am    G       F
How the wintry warlord gave poets another try
Fm                    C               
To figure the reasons why, it takes a 
Dm          Em      F           G       Fm   C
Laugh and a half to unveil your scarlet eyes

(Verse 2)
She returned, was wearing that rose so well
Broke down and cried because of the sun that had been up all day
At the movies there would have been rain
Oh, the bittersweet irony, rain replaced by tears

(Chorus 1)
         Fm             C               Eb             Bb
Ain't it funny how some things, look so different from afar
        Fm              C
When it comes to me and you
           Cm                Bb                 Cm                  Bb
The mirror stole our perfect view, now there is nothing left we can do
        Cm               Bb            Ab               Bb
And the story is done at last, for the ghost of flowers past

(Guitar Melody) x2
C - Fm - C - Fm - Am - G - F

(Verse 3)
I saw you shape the wings of a butterfly
Until the colors fit like a puzzle already done
But who am I to question the grand design?
Another headstone written to fix every broken rhyme
Carved in the hands of time, for the singer inside to remind us of your life

(Chorus 2)
In a place where nothing is real, let me tell you how I feel
Didn't know which heart to mend
So here's a drink to absent friends, for a love that never did end
And the story is done at last, for the ghost of flowers past

Memories of yesteryear, is a part of you we'll travel here, now
Eb                     Ab              Eb        Abm     Cm       Abm
The curtains call this day upon us, so ride this wave on wings of wondering
Eb        Cm      Fm         Bb       Eb     Abm Eb
Why those scarlet eyes still haunt me today

(Verse 4)
C                 Fm 
Back to the first day of summer
C                     Fm
The flowers that past greet the sunlight
Am                 G                 F
Again with a song, sung by angels of love
C                Fm              
So who am I now? In the distance 
C                    Fm
I hear broken words, calling me to the 
Am               G              
Rhythmless core, trapped forever
F
In love with the girl on the shore

In a place where nothing's real, I feel like telling you just why
Fmaj7                  Em7                Dm7             G7 
We all drink to absent friends, and for a love that never dies
Ain't it funny how the mirror makes sure perfect never lasts
It all starts and ends right here with you, my ghost of flowers past

(Verse 5)
I saw you dance alone down the waterline
You were searching for secrets lost in the setting sun
I saw you shape the wings of a butterfly
Now the riddle fits like a puzzle already done
Though life had just begun
Dm              Em            F            G      C    A
I will meet you again on the shores where lovers run
Dm              Em            F            G      C    A
I will meet you again on the shores where lovers run
Dm          Em    F   G      F   Fm               C    Fm C
I will meet you again on the shores, where lovers run
