I used to know this old scarecrow
          Eb              Bb     Eb/Bb
he was my song, my joy and sorrow
Bb                      Bb7
cast a lone between the furrows
     Eb                      Bb
of a field no longer sown by anyone
                   Bb7                    Eb
I held a dandelion that said the time has come
                  F           Bb
to leave upon the wind not to return
                      Eb
Till summer burns the earth again

Cultivate the freshest flower
               Bb
this garden ever grew
               Bb7           Eb
beneath these branches I once wrote
              Bb
such childish words for you
                       Bb7                            Eb
but that's ok there's treasure children always seek to find
              F                Bb7
and just like us you must have had
              Eb
a once upon a time
