Intro:
G Bm C D x2

Verse 1:

Well I came alone to find a little piece of mind

Neglected all my duties stepping off that straightened line

Now I just sit at my front door filled with inner lakes and sounds

It’s like I’m watching the weeds grow on my brow

And I had pure potential and a soiled white shirt

With love enough to kill me but was unsure of its worth

And though the night is sweetened by some rising of the moon

I’ve lived enough to know the battle’s never through

Chorus:

You pass something down, no matter where or how

Well there’ll be weeds or wildflowers fixed upon your brow

And there’s a crooked burning cigarette rolling on your tongue

Will there be weeds or wildflowers when you’re done

G Bm C D x2

Verse 2:

Whenever you travel to the desert or travel to the sea

Looking out on the horizon asking what you made of me

And as we all hang around with our freedom of mind

As all of our branches entwine

And as I watch the brick erode within a day

The leaves changing colors and the barrowfuls of hay

And as a blade of sunshine cuts across my chest

The blood beneath boils with unrest

Chorus

La La La La Laaa x2

La La La La Laaa x2

Pushed around by the wind and the worthless little thing

But the world can feel the changes of a butterfly’s wings

And so that crooked burning cigarette rolling on your tongue

Will leave be tweeds before your flowers when yet have sprung

Will there be weeds or wildflowers when you’re done
