A Sea Of Roses Chords

(ver. 1)
The Milk Carton Kids
[Intro]
F C G C G

[Verse 1]

C                                                    Dm                G
I lose sleep at night like a young man who's in the fight of his young life
F                       Dm                G                        C      G
I have never known the way the wind would blow if everything were fine
C                                                     Dm            G
I'm scared that when I die I'll be alone with no one sitting by my side
F                               Dm      G        C         G
No, I do not think that I could be alone when I die


[Chorus 1]
       F            C
Lay me down in the ground
       F             C
Put me back into the earth
      F            C
Among all of my friends
        F           C
Under a blanket of roses
   F      Dm    F     G
A sea of flowers overhead


[Verse 2]
C                                                  Dm           G
A field outside of Nashville pitches color to the dreariness of day
F                                    Dm                G                C      G
So the air hangs soft and tender, blowin' 'round my thoughts whichever way
C                                                            Dm            G
Where hills, they rise for miles and miles, I recognize the cryin' in the wind
F                             Dm       G                             C         G
I hear people come from everywhere to say goodbye sweet-like to their kin


[Chorus 1]
       F            C
Lay me down in the ground
       F             C
Put me back into the earth
      F            C
Among all of my friends
         F          C
Under a blanket of roses
   F      Dm    F     G
A sea of flowers overhead


[Chorus 2]
          F               C
That is right, I don't believe
    F                C
Anymore than skies above
          F                  C
It's just me and those I've loved
         F          C
Under a blanket of roses
   F      Dm    F     G
A sea of flowers overhead
        C     F   G   C
When I die
