 Flowers in the Window

  

  By Fran Healy

  

  

  

  Capo Fret 5

  

  

  

  Intro:

  

  G G/F#   G/Em     A7       C   D

  

  

  

  Verse 1:

  

  D                           C    D    	                  Em

  

  When I first held you I was cold. A melting snowman I was told.

  

           

  

  D                             C                        D                         G

  

  But there was no-one there to hold before I swore that I would be alone for ever more.

  

  

  

  Chorus:

  

             G    G/F#             G/Em

  

             Wow, look at us now, flowers in the window.

  

                   A7                        C        	     D

  

             It’s such a lovely day, and I’m glad you feel the same,

  

                            G   G/F#             G/Em                            A7

  

             ‘cos to stand up, out in the crowd, you are one in a million, and I love you so

  

                    C                D

  

             let’s watch the flowers grow.

  

  

  

  Verse 2:

  

             D                      C             D                             Em

  

             There is no reason to feel bad. But there are many seasons to feel glad, sad, mad.

  

                  D                                C                      D                         G

  

             It’s just a bunch of feelings that we have to hold, but I am here to help you with the load.

  

  

  

  Chorus 

  

  Instrumental Chorus ( La, La, La)

  

  

  

  Verse 3:

  

             D                             C        D                                Em

  

             So now we’re here and now is fine. So far away from there and there is  time, time, time.

  

             D                                     C				D		      G

  

                 To plant new seeds and watch them  grow so there’ll be flowers  in the window when we go.

  

  

  

  Chorus

  

             G    G/F#              G/Em

                   A7                        C                 D

  

             It’s such a lovely day, and I’m glad you feel the same,

  

                            G  G/F#              G/Em                             A7

  

             ‘cos to stand up, out in the crowd, you are one in a million, and I love you so

  Another Great song by Fran, I love it!

  

  This is how I play it on my acoustic, and it sounds ok.

  

  Listern to the CD, there are some tricky timings in verses 2&3.
