FLOWERS NEVER BEND
Paul Simon
Album : Songbook 1965
VERSE 1
F Em7
Through the corridors of sleep
F9 F
Past the shadows dark and deep
Am F9 F F F
My mind dances and leaps in confusion.
F Am
I dont know what is real,
F9 F
I can't touch what I feel
Am F9 F
And I hide behind the shield of my illusion.
CHORUS:
G F F Am
So I'll continue to continue to pretend
Dm7 Am
My life will never end,
D F
And flowers never bend
Csus4 F
With the rainfall.
VERSE 2
F Em7
The mirror on my wall
F9 F
Casts an image dark and small
Am F9 F F F
But Im not sure at all its my reflection.
F Em7
I am blinded by the light
F9 F
Of God and truth and right
Am F9 F F F
And I wander in the night without direction.
CHORUS
VERSE 3:
F Em7
Its no matter if youre born
F9 F
To play the king or pawn
Am F9 F F F
For the line is thinly drawn tween joy and sorrow,
F Em7
So my fantasy
F9 F
Becomes reality
Am F9 F F F
And I must be what I must be and face tomorrow.
CHORUS
