Fading Like A Flower by Roxette
Fading Like A Flower
[Intro]
A#
[Verse 1]
In a time where the sun descends alone
I ran a long long way from home
To find a heart that's made out of stone
I will try, I just need a little time
To get your face right out of my mind
To see the world through different eyes...
[Chorus]
F A# D C
Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
F G A A# C F
But when we meet it seems I can't let go
F A# D C A# * C
Every time you leave the room I feel I'm fading like a flower
* = With this played over the rhythm between the chords
after "flower"

Fading like a rose...
G D C F
Fading like a rose...
G D C F
Beaten by the storm
G A (keep going)
Talking to myself, getting washed by the rain,
it's such a cold cold town
Where the D, C, F and G chords are muffled slightly.
And the chords used are these:
