VERSE 1
G                          F
When I first met you I was cold
G                      Am
A melting snowman I was told
G 			      F
But there was no one there to hold
 		         G
Before I swore, that I would be alone forever more


CHORUS
C    C/B
Wow, look at you now,
Am
Flowers in the window
            D7
Its such a lovely day
        Fm		   G		         C
And I'm glad you feel the same, 'cos they stand up
C/B
I'm in the crowd
Am			        D7
You are one in a million and I love you so,
     Fm                 G
Lets watch the flowers grow
