(Intro: E A E B E)
       E              B               A             E
So you speak to me of sadness and the coming of the winter,
C#m             G#m                 A               B
fear that is within' you know that seems to never  end,
        E                 B
and the dreams that have escaped you
        A                   E
and the hope that you've forgotten
        C#m               E                  B
and you tell me that you need me now and you want to be my friend
        A
and you wonder where we're going,
             E                     B
where's the rhyme and where's the reason
         C#m          E           B
and it's you cannot accept it is here we must begin
            F#m
to seek the wisdom of the children
        E               A              B
and the graceful way of flowers in the wind.

Chorus:
        E                B              A              E
For the children and the flowers are my sisters and my brothers,
      C#m                 G#m              A             B
their laughter and their loveliness would clear a cloudy day.
         E             B                A             E
Like the music of the mountains and the colors of the rainbow
          C#m             E
they're a promise of the future
        B            E
and the blessing for today.


           E               B              A            E
Though the city starts to crumble and the towers fall around us
    C#m            G#m             A               B
the sun is slowly fading and it's colder than the sea
      E                 B               A                    E
it is written: From the desert to the mountains they shall lead us
       C#m              E               B
by the  hand and by the  heart and they will comfort you and me.
         A                                 E              B
In their innocence and trusting, they will teach us to be free.

Chorus 2:
        E                B              A              E
For the children and the flowers are my sisters and my brothers,
      C#m                 G#m              A             B
their laughter and their loveliness would clear a cloudy day.
         E             A            B              E
And the song that I am singing is a prayer for non-believers
 C#m               E              B              A    E
come and stand beside us, we can find a better way.
