Key: A

♫ Intro:

A5 Dsus2 (x2)



♫ Verse 1:
     A5               Dsus2
This cactus has little thorns
        A                Dsus2
They’re sharp and hard to see
    A5                   Dsus2
The sunlight had kept her warm
    A                  Dsus2
And she just wanted to always be free

        F#m7     A5       Dsus2
But you took her from the window
        F#m7    A5     Dsus2
And you put her on your desk
       A        Esus4     A5
She is cold and starts to shrivel
        Dsus2            A5
But you haven’t noticed yet

♫ Chorus:
F#m7 A5       Dsus2          A5
She  needs to live in the sun
F#m7 A5       Dsus2          A5
She  needs to live in the sun
F#m7 A5       D#dim
She  needs to live in the sun
           Dsus2
And that’s alright, that’s alright
        A  Dsus2  A  Dsus2
Let her be

♫ Verse 2:
    A5                       Dsus2
You mean well, of course you do
    A                  Dsus2
You give her water each day
    A5                     Dsus2
She loved you and tried to grow
        A                     Dsus2
But the dirt she knew has now turned into clay

        F#m7   A5  Dsus2
And her pot is overflowing
         F#m7   A5     Dsus2
Now it’s been a week or two
        A         Esus4  A5
And her roots are slowly rotting
             Dsus2        A5
There’s only one thing to do

♫ Chorus:
F#m7 A5       Dsus2          A5
She  needs to live in the sun
F#m7 A5       Dsus2          A5
She  needs to live in the sun
F#m7 A5       D#dim
She  needs to live in the sun
           Dsus2
And that’s alright, that’s alright
          Esus4
Let her be
