Bm  D  G  Em7  (x2)


Verse 1:

Bm          D       G      Em7
  Someone falls to pieces sleeping all alone, someone kills the pain
Bm          D     G      Em7
  Spinning in the silence, she finally drifts away
Bm         D      G      Em7
  Someone gets excited in a chapel yard, catches a bouquet
Bm      D      G      Em7    Em7
  Another lays a dozen white roses on a grave
