The hills were a live with wild (Eb)flow ers and (Bb)I

was as wild, e ven (F7)wild (Eb)er than (Bb)they.

For at least I could run; they just (Eb)died in the sun;

and I re fused to just (F)with (Eb)er in (Bb)place.

So, Just a (Eb)wild moun tain rose, need ing (Bb)free dom to grow, so I (Eb)ran, fear ing not where I’d (Bb)go.

When a (Bb)flow er grows wild, it can (Eb)al ways sur (Bb)vive.

Wild flow ers don’t (F7)care where (Eb)they (Bb)grow.
