    G+G Dadd9Dadd9 C majorC DsusDsus


G+G          Dadd9Dadd9
I will be the gladdest thing
C majorC          C majorC
Under the sun
G+G          Dadd9Dadd9
I will touch a hundred flowers
C majorC          DsusDsus
And not pick one.

G+G          Dadd9Dadd9
I will look at cliffs and clouds
    C majorC        E minorEm
With quiet eyes,
A minorAm            E minorEm
Watch the wind bow down the grass,
A minorAm             DsusDsus
And the grass rise.

G+G Dadd9Dadd9 C majorC C
G+G Dadd9Dadd9 C majorC DsusDsus

A minorAm               E minorEm
Doesn't each of us have a place
E minorEm
Where we belong.
A minorAm
Could be a sidewalk crack
DsusDsus
Or a sad song.

A minorAm            E minorEm
Inside our searchings is desire
A minorAm    B minorBm        E minorEm
To etch a silent thought in stone
A minorAm    B minorBm      E minorEm   C majorC DsusDsus
To make a tender heart known.

G+G          Dadd9Dadd9
I will be the gladdest thing
C majorC          C majorC
Under the sun
G+G          Dadd9Dadd9
I will touch a hundred flowers
C majorC          DsusDsus
And not pick one.

G+G          Dadd9Dadd9
I will look at cliffs and clouds
    C majorC        E minorEm
With quiet eyes,
A minorAm            E minorEm
Watch the wind bow down the grass,
A minorAm             DsusDsus
And the grass rise.

A minorAm             E minorEm
And when the lights begin to show
FF
Up from the town,
A minorAm                  E minorEm
I will mark which must be mine,
C majorC        D MajorD     G+G Dadd9Dadd9 C majorC C
And then start down!

G+G Dadd9Dadd9 C majorC DsusDsus

A minorAm               E minorEm
Everybody wants to be a hero
A minorAm               DsusDsus
Or a savior of small things
A minorAm               E minorEm
I want to be champion of evening
A minorAm        B minorBm      E minorEm  C majorC  DsusDsus
To forget not the beauty of the in-betweens.

E minorEm         Dadd9Dadd9
Every one of us an orphan
      A minorAm    C majorC      DsusDsus
Our bodies born from dust of the stars.
E minorEm         Dadd9Dadd9
We can comfort each other in this place
A minorAm          C majorC
I can look into your eyes
      DsusDsus
And see my own face.

G+G Dadd9Dadd9 C majorC C

G+G          Dadd9Dadd9
I will be the gladdest thing
C majorC          C majorC
Under the sun
G+G          Dadd9Dadd9
I will touch a hundred flowers
C majorC          DsusDsus
And not pick one.

G+G          Dadd9Dadd9
I will look at cliffs and clouds
    C majorC        E minorEm
With quiet eyes,
A minorAm            E minorEm
Watch the wind bow down the grass,
A minorAm             DsusDsus
And the grass rise.

A minorAm             E minorEm
And when the lights begin to show

Up from the town,

Start down
