Inside A Flower

Intro 

C          F 
Hold back the time 
Am          F 
just let it hang 
G                A 
stop the seconds, minutes, hours 
F              G 
And if I give you love 
Am        Gsus4       G 
will you let me keep myself? 

C   F  Am  F  G 


[Verso 1]
 
Am               G               F 
I'm sitting out here on the very edge of earth 
Bb                F              G          C 
looking through a book from long before the world began 
Am          G             F 
The man who gave it to me didn't have a name 

Bb           F       G         C 
as overhead the sun is running down the day  



[Pré-Refrão]

F               G 
The book begins its story 
Am                  G 
it tells of war and hate and tells of power 
F               G 
The promises of freedom 
Dm                   F              G 
and of all religions love and ways of life and how to...

[Verso 2]
 
Am         G               F 
The people passing by and they stop to look at me 
Bb             F         G         C 
they all think I'm crazy cause I'm laughing in the wind 
Am       G          F 
But I am free to be whatever I may choose 
Bb          F                   G        C 
to win this freedom I know that somebody had to lose  


[Pré-Refrão]

F                         G 
I've learned of those who buy love 
Am               G 
read about those willing to sell it 
F                    G 
When we're born it's for love 
Dm                            F              G 
some of us would die just to get it what you gotta do is...

[Ponte]
 
Bb                            F 
We can give our love away and never lose ourselves 
Am                                   G 
but no one can be something that you own 
Bb                                       F 
And if you think you've got the right to tell me what I am 
C                            G 
I got no trouble leaving you alone
