Verse
F#m
Don't stray from the path
The good people say
Bm
Well, she never did
But in a grove she lay
C#
The snow, it was falling
A#
As a stranger passed by
F#m
And gazed right into
C# F#m
Her lifeless, little eyes
VERSE
There was something about her
The good people say
Rumours start spreading
Once started, they'll stay
She went with the wolves
G# whisper goes round
Her skin was ripped and torn
The night she was found
BRIDGE
F#m
And on her bare breast
Bm F#m
G# frozen flower lay
F#m
It was a violet
Bm F#m
That's what people say
CHORUS
F#m
Violets were your favourite flowers
Bm C#
You always smiled when I
F#m
Gave them to you
Bm
Now I stand at your grave
Trembling for hours
F#m
My numb hands clutch
At frozen flowers
E
But flowers won't do
F#m
No more smile comes from you...
VERSE
She was that kind of woman
Man loves to adore
But her tender kisses
Left me longing for more
I try to be humble
The best that I can
But there is a wolf
Hiding in every man.
VERSE
It lays there waiting
And when the time's right
Love turns to hunger
In a dark grove at night.
What difference does it make
If you run, scream or cry?
When a wolf has scented the blood
All that's left is to die...
BRIDGE
Even if I placed a violet
Into a cold hand
Some things had to happen
There's no way to pretend
CHORUS
F#m
Violets were your favourite flowers
Bm C#
You always smiled when I
F#m
Gave them to you
Bm
Now I stand at your grave
Trembling for hours
F#m
My numb hands clutch
At frozen flowers
Violets were your favourite flowers
you always smiled when I
Gave them to you
Now I stand at your grave
And grief devours
What's left of my soul
And the frozen flowers
These flowers won't do
there's no more smile coming from you...
