Flesh And Blood

A                D               A
Beside a singing mountain stream
Where the willow grew
          D              A
Where the silver leaf of maple
         B7              E
Sparkles in the morning dew
A                  D
I braided twigs of willow
       A
Made a string of buckeye beads
D                     A
Flesh And Blood needs Flesh And Blood
    D                A
And you're the one I need
D                     A
Flesh And Blood needs Flesh And Blood
    D                A
And you're the one I need.

A                    D
I leaned against the bark of birch
    A
And I breathed the honeydew
        D                   A
I saw a northbound flock of geese
           B7            E
Against a sky of baby blue
A                D
Beside the lilly pads
           A
I carved a whistle from a reed
       D                A
Mother Nature's quite a lady
    D                A
But you're the one I need
D                     A
Flesh And Blood needs Flesh And Blood
    D                A
And you're the one I need.

  A             D
A cardinal sang just for me
      A
And I thanked him for his song
         D              A
Then the sun set slowly down the West
      B7            E
And I had to move along
A                     D
These are some of the things
            A
On which my mind and spirit feed
D                     A
Flesh And Blood needs Flesh And Blood
    D                A
And you're the one I need
D                     A
Flesh And Blood needs Flesh And Blood
    D                A
And you're the one I need.

    A                D
So, when the day was ended
      A
I was still not satisfied
    D                   A
For I knew everything I touched
      B7                E
Would wither and would die
A                D
Love is all that will remain
    A
And grow from all these seeds
       D                A
Mother Nature's quite a lady
    D                A
But you're the one I need
D                     A
Flesh And Blood needs Flesh And Blood
    D                A
And you're the one I need
