The Man Who Picked The Wildwood Flower***
( C ) I only saw five ( G7 ) people when they buried Jack ( C ) Dupree
Two diggers and the ( G7 ) preacher the funeral man and ( C ) me
The prayer was said and the ( F ) hole was filled in ( C ) less than half an hour
And I said goodbye to the little man who ( G7 ) picked the Wildwood ( C ) Flower
For twenty years I'd ( G7 ) seen him on the lower Nashville ( C ) streets
They said he always ( G7 ) earned enough to buy his clothes and ( C ) eats
He'd stop awhile and ( F ) check his watch with the ( C ) big clock on the tower
That's when I asked him once if he could ( G7 ) pick the Wildwood ( C ) Flower
He always drew a ( G7 ) crowd because he put on such a ( C ) show
He'd dance and sing and ( G7 ) play and smile just like a polished ( C ) pro
And every time he ( F ) saw me ( C ) standing in the crowd
I knew the tune that he'd play next ( G7 ) would be the Wildwood ( C ) Flower
I told him once ( G7 ) that he could be what people call a ( C ) star
And he said why ( G7 ) boy I'm happy how many of them folks ( C ) are
I'd hate to have to ( F ) force a smile and ( C ) feel myself turn sour
There ain't no put on in my face when I ( G7 ) pick the Wildwood ( C ) Flower
Then I saw a thousand ( G7 ) people as they begin to ( C ) come
Business men and ( G 7 ) stars party girls and ( C ) bums
And on that little ( F ) mound of clay ( C ) bouquets begin to shower
As they paid respect to the little man who ( G7 ) picked the Wildwood ( C ) Flower
