Bon Jovi – Wildflower
written by Jon Bon Jovi

Intro:  G | D | Am | C 


Verse 1:

G                   D
She wakes up when I sleep,
Em         D                  C
To talk to ghosts like in the movies
G                          D
If you don’t follow what I mean,
Em           D          C     
I sure don’t mean to be confusing


         C                         
They say when she laughs she wants to cry
       D
She’ll draw a crowd then try to hide
           Em             D                C
Don’t know if it’s her or just my mind I’m losing



Chorus:
       G                        C
Nobody knows a wildflower still grows
                   Em
By the side of the road
    Am7                             C D
And she don’t need to need like the roses
       G
Wildflower


Verse 2:
(G)                             D
That girl’s sure got a spell on me
          Em              D                C      
Yeah, her voodoo’s hidden right behind her pocket
G                      D
If she’s fire, I’m gasoline
         Em              D                C
Yeah, we fight a lot but neither wants to stop it


             C                              D
Well, she’ll tell you she’s an only child until you meet her brothers
            Em            D                C           
Swear she’s never met the man she couldn’t make into a lover



Chorus:
       G                        C
Nobody knows a wildflower still grows
                   Em
By the side of the road
    Am7                             C D
And she don’t need to need like the roses
                       G
She’s at home with the weeds
                      C
And just as free as a night breeze
                        Em
She’s got the cool of a shade tree
              Am7       C                D
She’s growing on me and I can’t live without her



Bridge:
Em                        Am
Yesterday’s a memory, tomorrow’s accessory
           C                      
That’s her favorite quote about regret
             Em             
Well, she’ll tell you ‘bout her pedigree
       Am                                   C  D
With a sailor’s mouth he would have left at sea and it ain’t over yet



Solo:
G | D | Em |  C               G  | D | Am | C
              No, no, Nobody Knows          Nobody 



Chorus:
G                        C
Knows a wildflower still grows
                   Em
By the side of the road
    Am7                             C          D
And she don’t need to need like the roses, the roses
                       G
She’s at home with the weeds
                      C
And just as free as a night breeze
                        Em
She’s got the cool of a shade tree
              Am7       C                D
She’s growing on me and I can’t live without her



           G      D      Am
But nobody knows, nobody knows,
C               G      D      Am   C
 No, no, nobody knows, nobody knows, 


G                   D
She wakes up when I sleep,
Em         D                  C
To talk to ghosts like in the movies




For my wildflower Maren
