Verse 1

D Why don't you tell me A E D What exactly I did wrong? A E I'm open to the bones D And all these flowers A E D You trampled in the garden A E Replaced with stones

Pre-Chorus

Bm Bm/C# D Looking at the two-way mirrors E F#m White chapels and white walls E Fade away to dreams Bm Bm/C# D Looking at the white veil falling E F#m The promises we made E The promises we'll keep

Chorus

F#m D A They set fire to the forest E F#m Hoping they would catch the bear D A E I'm as guilty as they promised F#m D A All the lilies did turn black E F#m As we weathered out the storm D Keep me safe A E And keep me warm

Instr

D A E 2x

Verse 2

D Why won't you tell me? A E D Why won't you talk to me at all? A E Your face stuck to your phone D So we're black lilies A E D Well we'll still grow without the sun A E No, we won't be alone

Pre-Chorus

Bm Bm/C# D We walled our hearts off to them E F#m Those petty high school calls E Fade away to dreams Bm Bm/C# D Looking at the white veil falling E F#m The promises we made E The promises we'll keep

Chorus

F#m D A They set fire to the forest E F#m Hoping they would catch the bear D A E I'm as guilty as they promised F#m D A All the lilies did turn black E F#m As we weathered out the storm D A Keep me safe E And keep me warm A E (Oooooaaaaah) D E F#m They set fire to the forest E D They set fire to the forest E F#m They set fire to the forest E D E They set fire to the forest
