This song starts with a horn intro, and then goes into a verse
thats mostly bass with the guitar playing "ska chords"
(I think thats what they're called) in the backround.
Dont play power chords till the pre chorus, and chorus.

-Verse 1-
A E A D
In a field of yellow flowers
A E A D
Undeneath the sun
A E A D
Bluest eyes that spark with lightning
A E A D
Boy with shoes undone
-Pre Chorus 1-
B A E D
He is young so full of hope
B A E D
Reveling in tiny dreams
B A E D
Filling up his arms with flowers
B E
Right for giving any queen
-Verse 2-
Running to her beaming bright
While cradeling his prize
A flickering of yellow light
Within his mothers eyes
-Pre Chorus 2-
She holds them to her heart
Keeping them where they'll be safe
Clasped within her very marrow
Dandelions in a vase
-Chorus-
A E B D
She sees love where
A B D E
Anyone else would see weeds
A E B D
All hope is found
A B D E
Here is everything he needs
-Verse 3-
Fathomless your endless mercy
Weight I could not lift
Where do I fit in this puzzle
What good are these gifts
-Pre Chorus 3-
Not a martyr or a saint
Scarcely can I struggle through
All that I have ever wanted
Was to give my best to you
-Chorus 2-
Lord search my heart
Create in me something clean
Dandelions
You see flowers in these weeds
-Bridge-
A D A E
Gently lifting hands to heaven
A D A E
Softened by the sweetest hush
A D B E
A father sings over his children
C# D E
Loving them so very much
-Pre Chorus 4-
More than words could warrant
Deeper than the darkest blue
More than sacrifice could merit
Lord I give my heart to you
-Chorus 2- x2
I know that the end of the bridge doesn't totally sound right,
Also if anybody knows what the real name for "ska chords" are,
