    The grass is just as green, the sky is just as blue,
                                                       A
    the day is just as bright, the birds are singing, too.

             A                                        E
You are my flower that's blooming in the mountain for me,
                                            A  E A
you are my flower that's blooming there for me.

        A                                           E
    The air is just as pure, the sunlight just as free,
                                                   A
    and nature seems to say, it's all for you and me.

             A                                        E

    So wear a happy smile, and life will be worthwhile,
                                             A
    forget your tears, and don't forget to smile.

    When summertime has passed, and snow begins to fall,
                                            A
    just sing this song, and say to one and all.

             A                                        E
You are my flower that's blooming in the mountain for me,
                                            A  E A
you are my flower that's blooming there for me.
