Tom: C

  C    Am             G                    C
[inaudible], makes me wish that you were here
          C        Am         G                  F
When my mind goes away, oh I hope that you'll be near me
   C           Am            G                  C
Flowers in my hair makes me wish that you were here
         C        Am           G   C
When my eyes go away, when my time goes

[Verse 1] [fingerpicking. something like 5 4 3, 5 4 3, 4 3 2, 5 4 3]

C        Am         F           G
I had a dream of a boy who loved me and
      C          Am             G     F
We danced in the leaves of an orange tree
  C          Am           F                G
Late as we walked oh we laughed while we talked
         C              Am            G     F
And we thought of the leaves of the orange tree

[PreChorus] [single downstrum on each chord]

     Am             Em              F           G
Then I went my own way, and you crossed the highway
     Am          F           G        Em
But just maybe someday we’ll be, my pretty

[Chorus]
   C           Am            G                   C
Flowers in my hair makes me wish that you were here
          C        Am         G                  F
When my mind goes away, oh I hope that you'll be near me
   C           Am            G                  C
Flowers in my hair makes me wish that you were here
         C        Am           G   C
When my eyes go away, when my time goes

   C           Am            G                   C
Flowers in my hair makes me wish that you were here
          C        Am         G                  F
When my mind goes away, oh I hope that you'll be near me
   C           Am            G                  C
Flowers in my hair makes me wish that you were here
         C        Am           G   C
When my eyes go away, when my time goes

[Verse 2]

 C        Am         F           G
Maybe one day I’ll end up in a place
       C        Am
Where I’m not afraid and
      G        F
The sun never sleeps
 C         Am            F              G
No sad goodbyes, and no fights and no crying
       C            Am          G       C
We’ll sleep in the arms of an orange breeze

[PreChorus]

    Am         Em            F         G
And I hope to see you just out of my side view
    Am          F           G      Em
And just maybe then we can be my pretty

[Chorus]

   C           Am            G                   C
Flowers in my hair makes me wish that you were here
          C        Am         G                  F
When my mind goes away, oh I hope that you'll be near me
   C           Am            G                  C
Flowers in my hair makes me wish that you were here
         C        Am           G   C
When my eyes go away, when my time goes

   C           Am            G                   C
Flowers in my hair makes me wish that you were here
          C        Am         G                  F
When my mind goes away, oh I hope that you'll be near me
   C           Am            G                  C
Flowers in my hair makes me wish that you were here
         C        Am           G   C
When my eyes go away, when my time goes
