I wanna live like a wildflower
A D A
Find my place in the golden sun
A D A
Sittin' on the banks of the Okeechobee
A E A
Watchin' that river run
A D A
Where's that girl who ran barefoot
A D A
Chasin' the wind and the butterflies?
A D A
Tellin' her secrets to the calico cat:
A E A
That cat never heard no lies
A D A
Grandma's apron full of blackberries
A D A
Sayin': "Get your bucket and a-come home child
A D A
"Wash your hands it's time for supper
A E A
"Clean your face but don't touch that smile."
D A E A
Kiss on the cheek and off to bed:

The nightlight's on and the Bible's read

Pray, the Lord, my soul to keep:
D E
Lord, keep my spirit free
A D A
I wanna live like a wildflower
A D A
Find my place in the golden sun
A D A
Sittin' on the banks of the Okeechobee
A E A
Watchin' that river run
D A E A
Run, run, river run
A E A
Watchin' that river run
Instrumental break
A D A
Where's that girl who laid in the daisies
A D A
Lookin' at the faces up in the clouds?
A D A
Dreamin' of the boy she's gonna marry
A E A
Where's that boy right now?
D A E A
Come on, honey, go with me
D A E A
To the boy and the girl we used to be

I pray, the Lord, our souls to keep:

We're gonna live like wildflowers:

Nature's daughter, nature's son

Sittin' on the banks of the Okeechobee

Watchin' that river run

Run, run, river run

Until this life on Earth is done

Find our place in the golden sun
A D A
Sittin' on the banks of the Okeechobee
A E A
Watchin' that river run

And the angels say:
D A E A
"Run, run, river run,"
D A E A
Dancin' at the feet of the Father's son
D A E D
All God's children having so much fun
A E A
Watchin' that river run

I'm gonna live like a wildflower
A D A
We're gonna live like wildflowers

We're all gonna live like wildflowers
