Chords for David Foster & Friends: Blake Shelton - Wildflower

Everyone in this business who's lucky enough to succeed in one way or another remembers their first hit and
The people that helped them get there in in 1972
I was in a band with my then wife BJ and the band was called Skylark and we were the classic
one hit wonders
But with the help of my friend Barry Devore's on who's here somewhere and BJ they got me to Los Angeles
And back then I always thought that our hit wildflower would make a great country song and coincidentally
There's a great Warner Brothers recording artist an amazing country singer enjoying a huge hit right now with Michael Bublé's song home
I'm thinking maybe maybe this guy could make a country hit out of my first hit 35 years ago.
So here to breathe new life
Into this classic this guy can sing and man is he good-looking.
It's scary.
Please.
