A5
I was in third grade
Got a potted plant full of flowers
E
Ran home and gave them to my mom
F#m
She said that they were marigolds
D5 E
What you call your garden-variety weed
[Refrão] A5*
Oh, I'm a marigold
E
Oh, I'm a marigold
F#m D5
Oh, I'm a marigold
A5
And you picked me
verse 2
A5
So anyway
I should buy my mom a bouquet
E
Just to say hey, I'm thinking about you today
That's right
F#m
Thinking about everything you did for me
D5 E
Like always saying "grace sets you free"
[Refrão] A5*
Oh, I'm a marigold
E
Oh, I'm a marigold

Oh, I'm a marigold
A5
And you picked me

A dormant volcano slowly waking up on New Year’s Day

But I could feel the butterflies from the start

It’s like we’re outside running and there’s nothing but the sun in your eyes

Nothing but the sun in your eyes

If I have to be closer to present state

I gotta pull something to tear it apart
E A2 D2
A ? condition slowly waking up on New Year’s Day
E A2
I won’t be sprinting to finish the race
D2
But I could feel the butterflies from the start
E A2 D2
You got your ? sunglasses and there’s nothing but the sun in your eyes
