5:34 AM, was about to start my day
C F
She laid there across me, so I stayed anyway
Am G
Arms are tired, legs numb, wrapped around my knee
C F
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how youʼre the sun to me
Instrumental:Am G C F Am G
Donʼt recall what you were wearing on the first night we met
C F
Besides a subtle cloud around you from my last cigarette
Am G
And you come from a good place with a happy family
C F
Only bad youʼve ever done was to see the good in me
Chorus: F C G Am
Well Iʼve been livin, waitin on the day
F C G Am
That the good lord willing sends you out my way
F C G Am
Iʼve seen hard times, bad luck, all that in between
F C G Am
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how youʼre the sun to me
Instrumental:Am G C F Am G
I remember being younger and my mother told me true
C F
Find someone who grows flowers in the darkest parts of you
Am G
Take heed when things get hard, and donʼt you ever turn around
C F
Youʼll find someone, someday, somewhere that grows you to the clouds
Am G
And you walked me home that evening when I could barely walk
C F
And you spoke to me so sweetly on the days I couldnʼt talk
Am G
Now Iʼm seeing clearly and Iʼm growing up so free
C F
Sweetest of the sunflowers, yeah youʼre the sun to me
Chorus: F C G Am
Well Iʼve been livin, waitin on the day
F C G Am
That the good lord willing sends you out my way
F C G Am
Iʼve seen hard times, bad luck, all that in between
F C G Am
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how youʼre the sun to me
F C G Am
Sweetest of the sunflowers, how youʼre the sun to me
