Lauren Spencer Smith - Flowers

[intro] x2
Cm  Bb  Eb  Gm  Ab

[verse 1]
Cm      Bb
Took me over to your
Eb                  Gm
house to meet your family
Ab
Introduce me to them saying that you'd marry me
Cm         Bb              Eb
Then you'd look me in the eye and say it's
Gm
just a joke
Ab
Then you'd kiss me and I'd smile
did you even know?
Cm         Bb
When you'd say that kinda
 Eb            Gm
thing I'd be excited
Ab
Got me hoping maybe one day you would mean it
Cm     Bb
Always thought I'd only
 Eb               Gm
make a fool of someone else
Ab
Now you've only gone and
made me make one of myself

[bridge]
Cm  Bb  Eb  Gm  Ab

[chorus]
Cm          Bb
I guess the flowers aren't just
Eb             Gm
used for big apologies
Ab
I guess I should've been more conscious
how you spoke to me
Cm               Bb
'Cause when we'd fight you give me
 Eb             Gm
space and not communicate
Ab
And for awhile I thought that's
what I should appreciate
Cm    Bb
Maybe I was holding
 Eb           Gm
onto what I thought you were
Ab
But when you think too hard
eventually it starts to hurt
Cm          Bb            Eb
The version of you in my head now
         Gm
I know wasn't true
Ab
Young people fall for the wrong people
guess my one was you

[bridge]
Cm  Bb  Eb  Gm  Ab

[verse 2]
Cm    Bb
I was getting any
 Eb                  Gm
flight so we could make it work
Ab
You'd ignore me could have told me
you were seein' her
Cm    Bb
Kinda hate myself for
  Eb          Gm
justifying your mistakes
Ab
Took a minute but I had to learn that
hard way
Cm      Bb
Who are you to tell me
Eb               Gm
I can't be heartbroken
Ab
Babe you had the chance the
door for you was open
Cm      Bb
If it's what you need to
Eb                Gm
tell yourself to sleep at night
Ab
Pretend I haven't found a
man who finally treats me right

[chorus]
Cm          Bb
I guess the flowers aren't just
Eb             Gm
used for big apologies
Ab
I guess I should've been more
conscious how you spoke to me
Cm               Bb
'Cause when we'd fight you give me
 Eb             Gm
space and not communicate
Ab
And for awhile I thought that's

Eb           Gm

Eb               Gm
head now I know wasn't true

[outro]
Cm          Bb
If there's anything I've
Eb                        Gm
learned it's you should watch yourself
Ab
If it's hurting you then leave and go
and get some help
