Wildflower by Skylar
David Foster was a member of Skylark when this one came out in 1973. One of my all time favourite high school slow dances.

[chorus:] Bb C Am Am7 Let her cry for she's a lady, Bb A7 Dm Dm7 Let her dream for she's a child; Bb Am Gm Gm Let the rain fall down upon her -- Gm7 C7 Fmaj7 She's a free and gentle flower, growing wild. [bridge:] Dm Am7 And if by chance I should hold her, Dm Am7 Let me hold her for a time; Dm Am7 Am7 But if allowed just one possession, Gm C Am I would pick her from the garden to be mine. [solo: guitar] Dm,,,,,Dm,Dm7, Bm7b5, Bb, Am, A7 [verse: 2] Dm Dm7 Bm7b5 Bb Be careful how you touch her, for she'll awaken, Gm C7 Fmaj7 A7 And sleep's the only freedom that she knows; Dm Dm7 Bm7b5 Bb And when you look into her eyes, you won't believe Gm7 C7 Gm7 C7 The way she's always paying for a debt she never owed, Gm7 C7 And a silent wind still blows Bb Am Gm Bb D That only she can hear, and so she goes. [chorus:] {repeat} [chorus:] {repeat} [coda:] Gm C7 Fmaj7 She's a flower growing wild Gm C7 Fmaj7 She's a flower growing wild chords: A7 575655 Am 577555 Bb 113321 Bm7b5 x2323x C7 x32310 D 557775 Dm 557765 Dm7 557565 Fmaj7 x33210 Gm 355333 Gm7 353333
