|[Dmaj7] / / [Dmaj7/A] / / |[Cmaj7] / / [Cmaj7/G] / / | (twice)

[Dmaj7] You look to [Am7]me like misty r[Dm7]oses,[G13][Dm7][G13]
[Gmaj7] Too soft to touch,[Gm7] but too lo[C11]vely to [Dmaj7]leave alone!

[Dmaj7] If I could[Am7] be like misty r[Dm7]oses,[G13][Dm7][G13]
[Gmaj7] I'd love you much, [Gm7] you're too l[C11]ovely to [Dmaj7]leave alone!

[Am7] [Ab7(b5)] [Gmaj7] Flowers often cry, but too [Gm7]late to find..[C11].
...That their [Dmaj7]beauty has been lost with their [Dm7]peace of [G13]mind![Dm7][G13]

[Dmaj7] You look to[Am7] me like love for - [Dm7]ever,[G13][Dm7][G13]
[Gmaj7] Too good to last, [Gm7] but too l[C11]ovely [Dmaj7]not to try!

[Am7] [Ab7(b5)] [Gmaj7] Flowers often cry, but too [Gm7]late to find..[C11].
...That their [Dmaj7]beauty has been lost with their [Dm7]peace of [G13]mind![Dm7][G13]

[Dmaj7] If I be - l[Am7]ieve in love for - e[Dm7]ver,[G13][Dm7][G13]
[Gmaj7] I'll forget the past, [Gm7] you're too lo[C11]vely [Dmaj7]not to try!

This is quite a short song,
when not including the instrumental verses
that appear on the album version.
Live, when not accompanied with a string section,
Colin repeats the last two verses 3 times.
