Yellow Flower(Chords)

	        'Yellow Flower' by KT Tunstall 

F Am Bb C 

F 
Still the pulse survives 
                Am 
The conscious candour of our conversation 
Bb 
Lovely as you are  
          C 
I see the strain, the pain, the degradation 
F 
Strips of light delightful 
       Am 
Either side of bars so thick and wide 
    Bb                         C 
You hide them with a colourful sigh 
F                       Am  
Falling at your feet in sheer joy that you were able to 
Bb                          C 
Receive me like a favourite chair 
A                          Dm 
Soaking up the tears if by magic it'll make me 
Bb                                C 
Ever warmer even after you're not here 


Bb           C              Dm 
Could I be a boat for you a while? 
Bb            C                 A             Bb 
Could I stay afloat for you and sail in your smile? 
Bb           C 
Could I be a boat for you 
    A              Bb 
And ever gain this weight for you 
Bb           C              F 
Could I be a boat for you a while? 

You are the yellow flower of my youth 
The scent of nothing wasted 
With little left to prove 
Oh graceful evergreen you take me 
Over hill I've ever been 
And others, just illusions 
Only seeming to be 
Falling at your feet in sheer joy that you were able to 
Receive me like a favourite chair 
Soaking up the tears if by magic it'll make me 
Ever warmer even after you're not here 

Could I be a boat for you a while? 
Could I stay afloat for you and sail in your smile? 
Could I be a boat for you 
And ever gain this weight for you 
Could I be a boat for you a while?
