This is my first tab, but a song that I did a long time ago for extra credit in my 
french class:) It should work nicely with the auto-scroll, so you can just enjoy 
playing, singing, and being happy:)

G C D

G                               C
The flower said "I wish I was a tree"
C                             D
The tree said "I wish I could be
D
A different kind of tree"
G
The cat wished that it was a bee
G
The turtle wished that it could fly
C
Really high into the sky
D
Over rooftops and then dive
G
Deep into the sea

G
And in the sea there is a fish
C
A fish that has a secret wish
D
A wish to be a big cactus 
G
With a pink flower on it
G
And in the sea there is a fish
C
A fish that has a secret wish
D
A wish to be a big cactus 
G
With a pink flower on it

G
And the flower 
C
Would be it's offering
D
Of love
G
To the desert
G
And the desert
C
So dry and lonely
D                                     G
That the creatures all appreciate the effort

G
Et le jackalope a dit (And the jackalope said)
C
"Je voudrais etre un yeti (I wish I was a yeti)
D
Pour voler dans le nuit (to steal into the night)
G
Et m'en aller loin d'ici" (and then go far from here)
G
Mais le yeti a dit (But the yeti said)
C
"Je voudrais etre un monstre marin (I would like to be a sea monster)
D
Pour pouvoir rentre dans le mer (To dive into the sea)
G
De tous les requins" (Of all the sharks)

G                                      C
And the rattlesnake said "I wish I had hands
C                         D
So I could hug you like a man"
D
And then the cactus said
G
"Don't you understand?
G
My skin is covered with sharp spikes
C
That'll stab you like a thousand knives
D                              G  
A hug would be nice but hug my flower with your eyes"

G                               C
The flower said "I wish I was a tree"
C                             D 
The tree said "I wish I could be
D          
A different kind of tree"
G
The cat wished that it was a bee
G
The turtle wished that it could fly
C
Really high into the sky
D
Over rooftops and then dive
G
Deep into the sea

G
And in the sea there is a fish
C
A fish that has a secret wish
D
A wish to be a big cactus 
G
With a pink flower on it
G
And in the sea there is a fish
C
A fish that has a secret wish
D
A wish to be a big cactus 
G
With a pink flower on it

G
And the flower
C
Would be it's offering
D
Of love
G
To the desert
G
And the desert
C
So dry and lonely 
D                                     G
That the creatures all appreciate the effort
