Flowers Tab par Samantha Ebert

[Verse 1]
C                               F           C
Well, blue skies and hillsides feel so far away
C                                F                C
And I wrote in my notebook that I've seen better days
         F
Than the ones as of late
                   G
I can't bear that weight

[Verse 2]
C                            F             C
The rain won't stop pouring out my window pane
C                                F    C
And I haven't left my bedroom in 76 days
        F                G
I wish something would change
            F  C     G
'Cause I'm losing faith

[Chorus]
C                                 G
So I brought it up in a desperate prayer
                             C
Lord, why are you keeping me here?
                     F               C       G
Then He said to me, "Child, I'm planting seeds
       C                         G
I'm a good God and I have a good plan
                               C
So trust that I'm holding a watering can
F           G      C             F              C
And someday you'll see that flowers grow in the valley"

[Verse 3]
C                           F              C
So whatever the reason, I'm barely getting by
C                                F                 C
I'll trust it's a season knowing that you're by my side
                  G
Every step of the way
C           G
And I'll be okay

[Chorus]
         C                            G
'Cause I brought it up in a desperate prayer
                             C
Lord, why are you keeping me here?
                     F                C     G
Then He said to me, "Child, I'm planting seeds
      C        F                  G
I'm a good God and I have a good plan
                                C
So trust that I'm holding a watering can
F           G      C             F                  C
And someday you'll see that flowers grow in the valley"

[Post-Chorus]
Mmm

Mmm

[Verse 4]
C                            F            C
When I'm on the mountain and looking down below
                                  F      C       G
I'll see a valley of flowers that needed time to grow
         C          F      C
And I'll thank you for the rain
             F       G
The hurt and days of pain

[Chorus]
C                                  G
And I'll bring it up in a grateful prayer
                                 C
Thank you, Jesus, for keeping me there
                              F              G
You know just what I need and you've planted seeds
                C                         G
'Cause you're a good God with a real good plan
                               C
And you hold my world in a watering can
F              C           F       G               C
So I can have peace 'cause flowers grow in the valley
