Verse 1
D 
 (D major) In the dry dusty desert
a wild flower grows
A 
D 
That  (A major) puts all the others to  (D major) shame
Far away in the desert
where nobody goes
A 
D 
The  (A major) flower that has no  (D major) name
In the whiskey -soaked mind
of an old minstrel man
A 
D 
There's a  (A major) ballad of peace and good (D major) will
A warm welcome song
that the world wants to hear
A 
D 
But the  (A major) voice of the minstrel is  (D major) still
So drink to the wildflower nobody knows
A 
 (A major) And the sorrow that loneliness brings
D 
Drink  (D major) to the dreamers who lose their way
A 
D 
And the  (A major) song that nobody sing (D major) s
Bb 
Eb 
There's  (B flat major) a  (E flat major) boy from the land
of the free and the brave
Bb 
Eb 
Who's afraid  (B flat major) to go home in the  (E flat major) dark
His world is a room
where a needle and spoon
Bb 
Eb 
Leaves a  (B flat major) devil's indelible mark  (E flat major) 
Take a look at the strangers
you pass on the street
Bb 
Eb 
And the  (B flat major) faces you see in a  (E flat major) bar
Sometimes I wonder if God really knows
Bb 
Eb 
Just  (B flat major) how lonely we  (E flat major) are
So drink to the wildflower nobody knows
Bb 
 (B flat major) And the sorrow that loneliness brings
Eb 
Drink  (E flat major) to the dreamers who lose their way
Bb 
Eb 
B 
And the song  (B flat major) that nobody sing (E flat major) s  (B major) 
E 
Take a  (E major) look at the woman
with nothing to say
B 
E 
And the  (B major) man who has nothing to  (E major) give
C#m 
E 
Watch (C sharp minor) ing  (E major) their dreams
slip away and die
B 
E 
When they  (B major) had every reason to  (E major) live
In the dry, dusty desert
a wildflower grows
B 
E 
Like  (B major) the wonderful dreams of the  (E major) young
And all that remains
of the old minstrel man
B 
E 
Is a  (B major) song that will never be  (E major) sung
So drink to the wildflower
B 
nobody knows  (B major) 
And the sorrow that loneliness brings
E 
Drink  (E major) to the dreamers who lose their way
B 
E 
And the  (B major) song that nobody sings  (E major) 
B 
And the  (B major) song that nobody sings
E 
 (E major)
