       D    C           G 
I have lived as a garden rose 
          D   C          G 
It is the only life I've known 
              D    C           G 
I've felt the touch of tending hands 
         D   C                G 
I get my rain from a watering can 


             D   C        G 
Now from the time I was a seed 
           D   C        G 
I have had everything I need 
           D     C           G 
And I grew strong and I grew tall 
          D         C               G 
Until the day I saw past the garden wall 



             C                     G 
Now, tell me something, little wildflower 
          D    C             G 
Can't you make some room for me? 
              C                 G 
'Cause I will climb out of this garden 
           D      C         G      D   C   G 
And put my feet down in the weeds 


         D            C            G 
I always thought that my life was enough 
       D                C               G 
'Til I saw your face so brilliant and so rough 
             D                  C               G 
And you were shining right back up at the whole sky 
            D       C                  G 
Handing out smiles, travellers passing by 



             C                     G 
Now, tell me something, little wildflower 
          D    C             G 
Can't you make some room for me? 
              C                 G 
'Cause I will climb out of this garden 
           D   C           G     
And I will lay down in the weeds 
  

Bridge: 

           Em              C  
And if an acorn becomes an oak tree 
Em          D/F#            G  C 
Caterpillar makes a butterfly 
         Em               C 
Oh, then tell me one good reason 
  Am                             D 
A rose should not become a weed by and by 


                 C                G 
'Cause don't the sunshine lay the brightest 
       D    C           G 
On the shoulders of the wild? 
                 C            G 
And don't the breeze blow the sweetest 
       D   C          G 
On the face of its own child? 



            C                     G 
And tell me something, little wildflower 
         D      C           G 
Have you made some room for me? 
              C                  G 
'Cause I will leave this wall forever 
         D   C              G   
A little wildflower, I will be 
         D   C              G    
A little wildflower, I will be 
           D   C                G    D   C   G 
Two little wildflowers, we will be
