Intro: Em G Cmaj7 B7
 
Verse 1:
Em                           G
When I was a little girl, my mama said to me
 Cmaj7                                 B7
"What's your favorite flower, darling? I'll get you the seed."
        Em                     G
I said “Dandelion, Dandelion," that one’s so pretty
           Cmaj7                           B7               Em
She said, "Child, that one's not a flower, that one's just a weed."
 
Pre-Chorus:
Cmaj7
Oh, what a shame
B7
Now it don't look the same
Cmaj7
Guess it don't look the same
B7
Oh, what a shame
 
Chorus:
Em      Cmaj7       B7
Call me what you want -Dandelion, Dandelion-
Em        Cmaj7      B7
You can't stop me multiplyin’
Em       Cmaj7        B7
Pull  me from the dirt
 
-Dandelion, Dandelion-
   Em                Cmaj7           B7
No you don't want me in your garden, Dandelion, Dandelion
Em      Cmaj7
Ooh-ooh-ooh
B7                  Em  Cmaj7
Dandelion, Dandelion
B7
-Dandelion, Dandelion-

Verse 2:
Em                               G
I still love those mellow yellow petals anyway
Cmaj7                              B7
What's that thing they say about a rose by any other name?
Em                              G
Then my fragile flower turned into a ball of grey
     Cmaj7                             B7
So I took a breath and made a wish and blew them all away
 
Pre-Chorus:
Cmaj7
Oh, what a shame
B7
Now it don't look the same
Cmaj7
Guess it don't look the same
B7
Oh, what a shame
 
Chorus:
Em      Cmaj7       B7
Call me what you want -Dandelion, Dandelion-
Em        Cmaj7      B7
You can't stop me multiplyin’
Em       Cmaj7       B7
Pull  me from the dirt
 
-Dandelion, Dandelion-
   Em                Cmaj7           B7
No you don't want me in your garden, Dandelion, Dandelion
 
Em      Cmaj7       B7
Call me what you want -Dandelion, Dandelion-
Em        Cmaj7      B7
You can't stop me multiplyin’
Em      Cmaj7       B7
Pull me from the dirt
 
-Dandelion, Dandelion-
   Em                Cmaj7           B7
No you don't want me in your garden, Dandelion, Dandelion
