Wildflower Bouquet

C

        F                       G
If I die in the winter send roses
C                  F
In the spring, magnolias
                                G
If I’m called in the summer or in the fall
F                                       C
Best of all – bring me a wildflower bouquet

       F                   G
In the dirt and clay don’t lay me down
     C                     F
And stare at a cold lonely hole in the ground
                         G
When I go to my Maker in smoke and ash
       F                  C
It won’t be your grief I crave

        F              G
Your tears will not be necessary
        C                   F
Build a blazing fire, drink something merry
                            G
When the sparks fly off into the wind
             F           C
That will be me blowing away

F                       G
Bury my ashes with the dogs I’ve loved
    C                       F
My faithful companions from God above
                            G
And ‘neath a sycamore we’ll grow strong
        F                   C
And the roots will bear us away

      F                    G
If my one true Love should join me there
        C               F
Mother nature soon will be aware
                  G
That sycamore will thrum and sing
    F                       C
And we’ll have left it that way.

   F                    G
So I don’t want you to feel sorry
C                  F
God knows how I despise your pity
                            G
And I’ll no longer bear the weight of worry
        F                    C
Those angry robes all fall away

            F           G
I’ll be singing loud and laughing long
  C                      F
A blaze of glory and an untold song
                         G
So there’s no need for tears my friend
                 F          C
Just bring a wildflower bouquet
