CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: G D C G (2x)
DCG
I have lived as a garden rose
DCG
It is the only life I've known
DCG
I've felt the touch of tending hands
DCG
I get my rain from a watering can
DCG
Now from the time I was a seed
DCG
I have had everything I need
DCG
And I grew strong and I grew tall
DCG
Until the day I saw past the garden wall
CHORUS:
CG
Now, tell me something, little wildflower
DCG
Can't you make some room for me?
CG
'Cause I will climb out of this garden
DCGG
And put my feet down in the weeds
DCG
I always thought that my life was enough
DCG
'Til I saw your face so brilliant and so rough
DCG
And you were shining right back up at the whole sky
DCG
Handing out smiles, travellers passing by
CHORUS:
CG
Now, tell me something, little wildflower
DCG
Can't you make some room for me?
CG
'Cause I will climb out of this garden
DCG
And I will lay down in the weeds
BRIDGE:
EmC
And if an acorn becomes an oak tree
EmD/F#GC
Caterpillar makes a butterfly
EmC
Oh, then tell me one good reason
AmD
A rose should not become a weed by and by
CG
'Cause don't the sunshine lay the brightest
DCG
On the shoulders of the wild?
CG
And don't the breeze blow the sweetest
DCG
On the face of its own child?
CHORUS:
CG
And tell me something, little wildflower
DCG
Have you made some room for me?
CG
'Cause I will leave this wall forever
DCG
A little wildflower, I will be
DCG
A little wildflower, I will be
DCGDCG
Two little wildflowers, we will be
