E    B  E


[Verse 1]
                        A             E
Sometimes I feel like a flower in the desert
                      B          E
Blooming alone like a motherless child
                 A         E
So far away in a prison of freedom
                          B           E
The only thing living for hundreds of miles.


[Verse 2]
                      A          E
I gave you all of the love in my heart
                             B         E
Just like a bouquet for your beautiful hand
                                  A             E
And you stayed till its roots had grown deep as the ocean
                       B           E
And left it alone in a cold barren land


[Chorus]
                                A       E
I don't think again I will find room or reason
                           B             E
To thirst for the water or reach for the sky
                    A             E
I wish I was just a flower in the desert
                               B            E
That never knew the meaning of hello or goodbye.


[Verse 3]
                          A              E
I nurtured and tended the faith I had in you
                                  B              E
But the seeds of destruction were there from the start
                        A          E
Was I born to bloom and waste my sweet fragrance
                              B          E
On the desolate plain of your cold, cold heart.


[Chorus]
                                A       E
I don't think again I will find room or reason
                           B             E
To thirst for the water or reach for the sky
                    A             E
I wish I was just a flower in the desert
                               B            E
That never knew the meaning of hello or goodbye.


[Chorus]
                                A       E
I don't think again I will find room or reason
                           B             E
To thirst for the water or reach for the sky
                    A             E
I wish I was just a flower in the desert
                               B            E
That never knew the meaning of hello or goodbye.


[Outro]
                               B            E      B  E
That never knew the meaning of hello or goodbye.
