Coughing Up Flowers

Trinity Rose


Tom: Am

                   Am                  F
You're a house of cards on a crooked table
                Dm                    G      Am
It's not your fault this love ain't stable
                           F
I'm tired of feeling this way
                             Dm
Don't know if you feel the same
                          G
Why don't you just slip away?


[Chorus]
             Am                   F
I just keep coughing up flowers
                            Dm             G
You make me suffocate for hours and hours
                    Am
I put myself on display
                           F
These petals surface and scathe
                Dm    G
Creating my bouquet


[Verse 2]
                     Am                F
You're a swallowed heart in a broken fable
                   Dm              G
You're a motion picture but never major
     Am                       F
And I'm so caught up in your love
                           Dm
Thinking 'bout the two of us
                          G
Don't know what's fair enough


[Chorus]
             Am                   F
I just keep coughing up flowers
                            Dm             G
You make me suffocate for hours and hours
                    Am
I put myself on display
                           F
These petals surface and scathe
                Dm    G
Creating my bouquet


[Post-Chorus]
            Am                    F
I just keep coughing up flowers
            Dm                    G
I just keep coughing up flowers
            Am                    F
I just keep coughing up flowers
            Dm                    G   Am*
I just keep coughing up flowers


[Bridge]
                   F*        Dm*
Is it so wrong to love you?
                   G*                  Am*
Is it so wrong to choke on all these colors?
                   F*               Dm*
Is it so wrong to see this clear?
                      G*
Who is this person behind my mirror?


[Chorus]
             Am                   F
I just keep coughing up flowers
                            Dm             G
You make me suffocate for hours and hours
                    Am
I put myself on display
                           F
These petals surface and scathe
                Dm    G
Creating my bouquet
       Am  F        Dm   G
My bouquet, my bouquet
       Am F         Dm   G
My bouquet, my bouquet
              Am*
I just keep coughing up flowers
