Well this flower is my soul 
            C2               G 
But it's not half of what I owe 
       C                G               D 
I should give you every rose that ever grew 
               G         C       G 
But take this one here for a start 
            C2               G 
And you can keep it in your heart 
          G              D          G 
I have everything I need because of you 
            
Well if my life was long enough 
To pack up everything I love 
I would do just that and give it all to you 
But it's impossible to pay 
All the things you gave away 
So this flower I give will have to do 
 
All the flowers growing wild 
For ten thousand lonely miles 
It's not near enough to give you what i should 
So I will owe you for awhile 
Maybe longer than my time 
I would give you all the world if I could
