Sunflowers

	  		Verse 
G                      C 
Start this off with a nervous scene: 
G 
I can see you standing there, but just like that 
              C 
it's as if I forgot how to speak 
     G                              C 
not a word I've rehearsed will come out 
                     G 
and here it goes again 

She walked right by and didn't even care 
                        C                               G 
to glance to her left, where I stood with the blankest stare 
                                      Em               G 
if there's one thing I know, it's that I don't know a thing 

about this stupid kind of situation 


Chorus 
                                                      C 
Why do I lose my composure when I see a pretty little thing walking by? 
                G                          D 
The worst part is she doesn't see that I'm picking on sunflowers, 
   Em        G             C 
trying to convince myself that I've got a chance. 
G                                                C 
I swear it's like I'm learning to walk and talk all over again 
                     G                                        Em          C 
I feel like a child but soon, the time's gone by and all I've got to show is 
                     G 
a thousand petals in my hands.

                    C                   G                       C 
In most cases, I've got a reputation for not quite knowing the right words to say 
         G               C 
and this is no exception, I feel a connection 
G                        C 
did she feel it too? God knows I'll never have a clue. 
G D 

G          C 
I want this 
D G 
            Em 
and I need it 
D G 
                    Em 
If it's just for a minute 
      G 
all I need is a new beginning.

I swear it's like I'm learning to walk and talk all over again 
                     G                                        Em          C 
I feel like a child but soon, the time's gone by and all I've got to show is 
                     G 
a thousand petals in my hands. 



Verse 
C                    G                    C 
  I won't say I've never felt this way before 
    G     C 
but girl, if you'll give me a chance, 
G                     C 
I'd love to make this so much more 
G                 C                             G 
  Look me in the eye, and I'll tell you I don't want this 
         C                 G 
I don't need this one bit. 
                    C                           G 
And if you call my bluff, won't kiss you softly without hesitation 
C 
not even for a minute.

a thousand petals in my hands. (x2)

    in my hands
