Verse 1:
D
Where'd all the time go?
                 G
It's starting to fly.
D
See how the hands go;
            G
Waving goodbye.
 

Em                    A
And you know I get so forgetful
                     D
when I look in your eyes.
 
Verse 2:
D
Now she's walking backwards
            G
through a parade.
D
And I'm stuck in the shadow
              G
blocking the shade.
 

Em                         A
And there ain't no way to sweep up the 
                 D
mess that we've made
 
Chorus:
Em                         A
She gets dressed up like a pillow so she's 
           G
always in bed
                Gbm     Bm
Flowers for the sick and dead
             G                   Gbm    Bm
She's on the go, way too fast and way too slow
             G                        Gbm   Bm
She'll turn to stone at hospitals and funeral homes
             G           A
and when the fog rises somebody sighs 
                          D
who is not in disguise anymore
 
Verse 3:
D
There's nothing to keep you 
                G
from falling in love.
D
It starts at the bottom 
                 G
and comes from above. 
Em                A                        D
Like pieces of a puzzle, like a hand in a glove
 
Chorus:
Em                         A                          G
She gets dressed up like a pillow so she's always in bed
                Gbm        Bm
Flowers for the sick and dead
             G                    Gbm      Bm
She's on the go, way too fast and way too slow
                 G                    Gbm     Bm
She'll turn and stop at hospitals and funeral homes
              G         A                                             D
and when the tide rises somebody sinks and is gone in the blink of an eye
