Chorus:
D                   B        Em         A
I wonder if you'll leave me behind someday
          D                    B      Em              A
Among the wildflowers and the lilies sleeping by the way
D         B
But it’s okay
Em                  D           B Em
Because I would do anything for you
 
Interlude: Am Em A

Verse 1:
G            Am     D           B7
The sunlight dances beyond the yard
Em                        D   B7
And painted your eyes in green
Em                         D     B7
But you're fixated on the candytufts
Em
And you hadn't the time for me
 
Chorus:
D                    B7      Em         A
I wonder if you’ll leave me behind someday
           D                   B7       Em             A
Among the wildflowers and the lilies sleeping by the way
 D         B
But it's okay
Em                    D        B7 Em
Because I would do anything for you
 
Interlude: Am
 
Verse 2:
G            Em   Am     D                 B
I washed my hair til it trickled down the drain
Em              Gm         D  B7
As the lavender filled the air
Em         Am             D    B7
The scent might drive me half insane
Em
But maybe you'll see me then
 
Chorus:
   D                B7        Em       A
I wonder if you'll leave me behind someday
           D                   B7      Em             A
Among the wildflowers and the lilies sleeping by the way
 D        B
But it's okay
Em                    D          B7 Em
Because I would do anything for you
 
Verse 3:
G          Am      D       B
The rhododendrons crimson flame
     Em                 D B7
Set fire to the sleepy air
Em                 D       B
And lit the early morning haze
      Em
That glistened in your tangled hair
 

G                Am      D   B
The thorns grew tighter everyday
            Em              D B
Round your ankles dripping red
Em                          D
You placed a crown of marigolds on my head
      B
And then you said
       Em                               Am   A
As you tried to pull your bloody hands away
 
Chorus:
     D           B         Em
I'm never gonna leave you behind someday
        B                        Em
In the daisies and the bluebells weeping by the way
D           B       Em                   E  D
Because I love you, and I would do anything
        B             Em         A  Em
I would do anything, anything at all
 
Outro: 
  D                B      Em           A
I wonder when you left me behind that day
D                  B      Em        A
Asleep beneath the willow withering away
    D        B
If you were okay
Em                  D      B      Em
Because I would do anything for you
 

            D
I would do anything
