A Petal Here A Petal There

G  C A G D G

[Verse 1]
G                  D               G
Darling, won't you rest your weary eyes?
C                                G
There's no use in waiting for sunrise
C
If the stars begin to dim
G               Em
If the earth ceases to spin
C                 A                D   G D
No matter where I am or where I've been

[Verse 2]
G                D                 G
A person needs a place to rest her head
C                                  G
A place to put her burdens down to rest
C
I think I'll join the working class
G              Em
I just want my work to last
Continues after the ad
                A                D
Tell me now, is that too much to ask?

[Verse 3]
G                         D                     G
Sometime's there ain't no right; there ain't no wrong
C                                    G
There ain't a new way to put it in a song
C
I'm sorry, Dad. I'm sorry, Mom.
G                     Em
I think I've known it all along
A               G        D            A        D     A
Sometimes there ain't no right; there ain't no wrong

[Verse 4]
G                D                    G
A flower for the gaze you shared with me
C                               G
A stone for all our shitty memories
C
A petal here, a petal there
G                Em
A petal for your lovely hair
A         C                Em        D    C D
A penance for the things I could not share

If the earth ceases to spin

No matter where I am or where I've been
