A                D               A 
Beside a singing mountain stream 
Where the willow grew 
          D              A 
Where the silver leaf of maple  
         F#m            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 
          F#m         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. 
 
D A D A D A 
 
  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 
      F#m          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 
      F#m              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
