Tom: F#m
F#m
[Verse 1]
F#m
The one who survives by making the lives
E
Of others worthwhile
D
She's coming apart
Bm
Tight before my eyes
F#m
The one who depends on the services she renders
E
To those who come knocking
D
She's seeing too clearly what she can't be
A C#
What understanding defies
[Chorus]
F#m
She says I need not to need
E
Or else a love with intution
D
Someone who reaches out to my weakness
A C#
And won't let go
F#m
I need not to need
E
I've always been the tower
D
But now I feel like the flower
C#
trying to bloom in the snow
[Verse 2]
F#m
She turns up the light
E
Anticipating night falling tenderly around her
D
Watches the dusk
Bm
The words won't come
F#m
She carries the act so convincingly
E
The fact is sometimes she believes it
D
She can be happy with the way things are
A C#
Be happy with the things she's done
[Chorus]
F#m
She says I need not to need
E
Or else a love with intution
D
Someone who reaches out to my weakness
A C#
And won't let go
F#m
I need not to need
E
I've always been the tower
D
But now I feel like the flower
C#
trying to bloom in the snow
[Bridge]
D A E
Reach out, hold back Where is safety
D A C#
Reach out and hold back
D A
Where is the one who can change me
F#m
Where is the one
Bm C#
The one
[Ad-lib]
F#m E D Bm
F#m E D A , C#
(Repeat Bridge)
[Chorus]
F#m
She says I need not to need
E
Or else a love with intution
D
Someone who reaches out to my weakness
A C#
And won't let go
F#m
I need not to need
E
I've always been the tower
D
But now I feel like the flower
C#
trying to bloom in the snow
[Outro]
D
I feel like I'm the flower
C#
trying to bloom in the snow
D
The danger and the power
C#
Friend and the foe
