EmD
5:36 a.m., I was 'bout to start my day
GC
But she lay in there across me, so I stayed anyway
EmD
Arms tied, legs numb, and wrapped around my knees
GC
Sweetest of the sunflowers, yeah, you're the sun to me
EmD
I don't recall what you were wearing on the first night we met
GC
Besides the subtle clouds around you from my last cigarette
EmD
And you come from a good place with a happy family
GC
Only bad you ever done was to see the good in me
CGDEm
But I've been livin', waitin' on the day
CGDEm
That the good Lord willin', send you out my way
CGDEm
I've seen hard times, bad luck, and all that's in-between
CGDEm
Sweetest of the sunflowers, yeah, you're the sun to me
EmD
And I remember being younger, and my mother told me truth
GC
Find someone who grows flowers in the darkest parts of you
EmD
Take heed when things get hard and don't you ever turn around
G
You'll find someone, someday, somewhere
C
That'll grow you to the clouds, oh
EmD
And you walked me home that evening when I could barely walk
GC
And you spoke to me so sweetly on the days I couldn't talk
EmD
And now I'm seeing clearly and I'm growing up so free
GC
Sweetest of the sunflowers, yeah, you're the sun to me
CGDEm
And I've been livin', waitin' on the day
CGDEm
That the good Lord willin', send you out my way
CGDEm
I've seen hard times, bad luck, and all that's in-between
CGDEm
Sweetest of the sunflowers, yeah, you're the sun to me
CGDEm
Sweetest of the sunflowers, yeah, you're the sun to me
