The Petrified Forest
D
VERSE 1:
G F#m
When we were together
Bm Gm/A
I lay in your river
G A Bm Bm/A
As the fish swam through my hands
G F#m
Raindrops and roses
Bm Gm/A
fell from the heavens
G A D Dsus4
Just to brush against your skin
G F#m
And a strand of your hair
Bm Gm/A
lost to the wind
G A D Dsus4
Sent doves wheeling through the air
CHORUS:
G A D Dsus4
But now I'm alone in the petrified forest
G A Bm Bm/A
Stumbling on rocks in the dark
G A D Dsus4
But I remember, I still remember
G A D DDus4
When you held me in your beautiful arms
INTERLUDE:

VERSE 2:
G F#m
When you left me alone
Bm Gm/A
the sky turned to stone
G A BmBm/A
And my legs rolled into the sea
G F#m
Why did you go?
Bm Gm/A
The sea was so cold
G A D Dsus4
My arms blew off in the breeze
G F#m
I search for your footprints,
Bm Gm/A
the scent of roses
G A D Dsus4
As the wind weeps over the sea
CHORUS:
G A D Dsus4
But now I'm alone in the petrified forest
G A Bm Bm/A
Stumbling on rocks in the dark
G A D Dsus4
And I remember, I'll always remember
G A Bm BBBBm/A
When you held me in your beautiful arms
