[Verse 1]
                               Dm             G
Hearts are meant to be broken, made that way
                   E      F G  Am
Love must have its trial
                        Dm            G
Beauty, hope and wonder could not be
                                  E     F G  Am
Without doubt and pain and self-denial


[Chorus]
                             F
All the flowers of the bough
                                 Em
And they will fall and they will fade
           Dm7                            Am
But they resound in the distance of the days
                    F                 Em
Is life just a dance of happenstance?
          F  G  Am   F G  Am   F G  Am
I don't believe that


[Verse 2]
                                 Dm            G
The wheel of the sky is rolling away from you
                E     F G  Am
You can feel it fall
                              Dm          G
And it's not always easy, but if you try
                               E    F G  Am
You might see the genius of it all


[Chorus]
                             F
All the flowers of the bough
                                 Em
And they will fall and they will fade
           Dm7                            Am
But they resound in the distance of the days
                    F                 Em
Is life just a dance of happenstance?
          F  G  Am
I don't believe that


[Interlude]
F  Am   F  Am  Gm  Dm   E    G Am


[Verse 3]
                              Dm
If I could give you one thing
                                  G
If there could be just one thing, I
                 E       F G
I would give you dreams
Am                              Dm
But we got to realize we're only passersby, but you see
G                           E           F G  Am
Dreams survive all life's uncertainties


[Chorus]
                             F
All the flowers of the bough
                                 Em
And they will fall and they will fade
           Dm7                            Am
But they resound in the distance of the days
                    F                 Em
Is life just a dance of happenstance?
          F  G  Am
I don't believe that
          F      Em
I don't believe
              Dm     Am
No, I don't believe
              F      Em
No, I don't believe
          F      G  Am  Em  Am  Em  Am
I don't believe
