Chords with lyrics
Wildflower - Skylark (Doug Edwards / Dave Richardson) 1972
Intro:
|DmDm Dm/C |G7/B Bb majorBb |A minorAm |A minorAm A augmentedA |
DmDm Dm/C G7/B G+G
She's faced the hardest times you could imagine
Bb/CBb/C Bb/CBb/C FF A augmentedA
And many times, Her eyes fought back the tears
DmDm Dm/C G7/B Bb majorBb
And when her youthful world was about to fall in
Bb/CBb/C Bb/CBb/C
Each time her slender shoulders,
Bb/CBb/C Bb/CBb/C
Bore the weight of all her fears
Bb/CBb/C Bb/CBb/C
And a sorrow no one hears
Bb majorBb A minorAm G minorGm D MajorD
Still rings in midnight silence in her ears
Bb majorBb C majorC FF
Let her cry for she's a lady
Bb majorBb A augmentedA DmDm
Let her dream for she's a child
Bb majorBb A minorAm G minorGm
Let the rain fall down upon her
Bb/CBb/C Bb/CBb/C FF
She's a free and gentle flower growing wild
Bb majorBb FF
And if by chance I should hold her
Bb majorBb FF
Let me hold her for a time
Bb majorBb FF
But if allowed just one possession
G minorGm C majorC FF
I would pick her from the garden to be mine
Interlude:
|DmDm |DmDm |DmDm Dm/C |G7/B Bb majorBb |
|A augmentedA |A augmentedA |
DmDm Dm/C G7/B G+G
Be careful how you touch her for she'll awaken
Bb/CBb/C Bb/CBb/C FF A augmentedA
And sleep's the only freedom that she knows
DmDm Dm/C G7/B Bb majorBb
And when you walk into her eyes you won't believe
Bb/CBb/C Bb/CBb/C
The way she's always payin'
Bb/CBb/C Bb/CBb/C
For a debt she never owes
Bb/CBb/C Bb/CBb/C
And a silent wind still blows
Bb majorBb A minorAm G minorGm D MajorD
That only she can hear and so, she goes
Bb majorBb C majorC FF
Let her cry for she's a lady
Bb majorBb A augmentedA DmDm
Let her dream for she's a child
Bb majorBb A minorAm G minorGm
Let the rain fall down upon her
Bb/CBb/C Bb/CBb/C FF
She's a free and gentle flower growing wild
Bb majorBb C majorC FF
Let her cry for she's a lady
Bb majorBb A augmentedA DmDm
Let her dream for she's a child
Bb majorBb A minorAm G minorGm
Let the rain fall down upon her
Bb/CBb/C Bb/CBb/C FF
She's a free and gentle flower growing wild
G minorGm Bb/CBb/C FF
She's a flower growing wild
She's free.......
