[Verse 1]
G (F#) Em (F#) G
Well I try to close my eyes, clear my mind, and just listen to the wildflowers growing
D G C
But such whispers on the breeze, they don't come easy now over all this noise
Em (F#) G C D
I spent my youth among the pines, they used to sing a tune so fine
Em D C D G
And the wind moved like an echo, carrying their voices
[Verse 2]
G Em (F#) G
But I saw it in a dream, monuments of trees as the air we breathed turned our lungs to dust
D G C
And the redwoods so tall, in all their awe, began to rust
Em (F#) G (B) C D
With no bend and sway at all, that ancient dance was lost
Em D C D G
And the wind moved like an echo, with a sigh in every gust

Bm C G D
Well someday I hope to find that land of honey wine where the coffee grows on the white oak trees
Am Em C
And those sugar-coated mountains in the spring begin to melt into the sweetest streams
[Verse 3]
Em (F#) G C D
Where each night the starlight and the sea together form eternity
Em D C D G
And the wind moves like an echo as the world drops off to sleep
