I saw her sitting in the rain, raindrops falling on her.

She didn't seem to care; she sat there and smiled at me.

And I knew (I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew)
G/B D DM7 D6
She could make me happy (happy, happy).
Em G/F# G G/B A7 G/B A7
Flowers in her hair, flowers everywhere.

I love the flower girl, oh, I don't know just why.

She crept into my mind, to my mind

I knew I had to say hello (hello, hello) --

She took my hand and we walked through the park alone.

Suddenly the sun broke through (see the sun).

I turned around she was gone (where did she go).

She had made me happy (happy, happy).

Flowers in her hair, flowers everywhere.

I love the flower girl, her love showed me the way to find a sunny day
