[Verse 1]
A7
Passing jacaranda trees
G7
I am lucky for the things that I get to unsee
A7 G7 A7
reality is heavy and loud and rustles angry crowds of colors that all breathe in sync
G7
but white has the privilege of washing machines
F#7
to wash out the stains from their comfortable jeans
wiping the blood off their hands to their thighs
G7
wearing the blood of the people who’ve died
[Chorus]
Cb A G F#
but don’t let the Purple Flowers fool you
Cb A G F#
bleach every dirty truth, laundry cycling through
Cb A G F#
they are liars, shrinking history in driers, teaching whiter in school
Cb A G F#
It’s illegal picking Purple Flowers camoflauging concrete illusions
[Verse 2]
G7
The seasons change
A7 G7
And the violets disappear
A7
Revealing the violence that’s always been here
G7 A7
I fear the force of the forest
G7
Without us they still flourish
A7
In a world of non conformists
[Chorus]
Cb A G F#
but don’t let the Purple Flowers fool you
Cb A G F#
bleach every dirty truth, laundry cycling through
Cb A G F#
they’re all liars, we’re on fire, trees remind us they’ve rewired the news
Cb A G F#
It’s illegal picking Purple Flowers camoflauging concrete illusions
CODA
Cb7
and the purple trees just wanna be free
A7
bursting through the concrete
G7
I am small but significant,
F#7
the world is pretty when we
F#7 A7 G7 Cb7
And plant jacaranda trees
