Flowers in the Rain (roy wood)
G
1. Woke up one morning half asleep
With all my blankets in a heap
C D
and yellow roses gathered all around me;
G
the time was still approaching four
I couldn't stand it anymore
C D
Saw marigolds upon my eider down.
G
Chorus: I'm just sitting watching flowers in the rain
A7 D A7 D7
Feel the power of the rain making the garden grow,
G
I'm just sitting watching flowers in the rain
A7 D
Feel the power of the rain keeping me cool.
2. So I lay upon my side with all the windows opened wide
Couldn't pressurize my head from speaking
Hoping not to make a sound I pushed my bed into the grounds
In time to catch the sight that I was seeking.
Chorus.
C G
If this perfect pleasure has the key
Am
Then this is how it has to be
If my pillow's getting wet
F Dm7 Dm6 C
I don't see that it matters much to me.
D7

4. I heard the flowers in the breeze make conversation with the trees
Believed to leave reality behind me
With my commitments in a mess my sleep has gone away depressed
In a world of fantasy you'll find me.
Chorus.
