White Lilies Chords

   
Artist: Boo Hewerdine
Song: White lilies
Tabbed by: DJ

Tuning: Standard

A beautifully simple song, expressing the sadness of attending
more funerals as we all get older, and losing more friends and family.
I'd love to hear Tom Waits do a cover of this!

White lilies re - mind me...   of those who had to go,

        G             Cm  D7    G            G7          C
White lilies seem to find me,       more and more these days,
     G            D                     Cm             D7     G

   Gods and angels,     we create them,      I used to wonder why,
C                  G                      A    A7    Am7        D7
   Now I see more...  why we make them, every time I say good - bye!
