The sun and the rain, fell from up above

And landed on the herbs below

Now there’s a rose for the way my spirits rose when we met
E C#m A B
A forget-me-not to remind me to remember not to forget
E C#m A B
A pine tree for the way I pined over you
E C#m A B
And an ash for the day I ashed you to be true.
And so on...
