C         Dm      G      C
There are flowers in the cities 
C         Dm     G        C
Some with color, some are pale
        Dm        G      C
You may find them on the sidewalks 
C        F          G         C
Some are wilted but still for sale


Chorus:
        F    G         C
You can pick forbidden flowers 
          F        G         C
There are ways and there are means
       F    G         C
If you pick forbidden flowers 
        F       G         C
You may shatter someone's dream


There are flowers in the country 
Soft to touch and sweet to smell
There are dangers in the flowers 
Pick them wisely know them well

Chorus

You may shatter someone's dream
