Flesh And Blood Chords

Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 BGeside a singin'C mountain streaGm where the willow grew

 Where the Csilver leaf of Gmaple sparkled A7in the mornin'D dew

 I Gbraided twigs of Cwillow, made a Gstring of buckeye beads

 But Cflesh and blood needs Gflesh and blood Cand you're the one I Gneed

CFlesh and blood needs Gflesh and blood Cand you're the one I Gneed

I leaned against the bark of birch and I breathed the honeydew

I saw a northbound flock of geese against a sky of baby blue

Beside the lily pads I carved a whistle from a reed

Mother Nature's quite a lady, but you're the one I need

Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood and you're the one I need

Interlude

C and G x4

A cardinal sang just for me and I thanked him for the song

Then the sun went slowly down the west and I had to move along

These were some of the things on which my mind and spirit feed

But flesh and blood needs flesh and blood but you're the one I need

Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood and you're the one I need

So, when the day was ended I was still not satisfied

For I knew everything I touched would wither away and die

And love is all that will remain and grow from all these seeds

Mother's Nature's quite a lady, but you're the one I need

Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood and you're the one I need
