[Verse 1]

Fm     C
  Well blue skies and hillsides feel so far away
      Em
And I wrote in my notebook that I've seen better days
         Dm
Than the ones as of late
  F                    Fm
I can't bear the weight
    C
The rain won't stop pouring out my window pane
      Em
And I haven't left my bedroom in 76 days
       Dm
I wish something would change
      F               Fm
Cause I'm losing faith

[Chorus]
    C
So I brought it up in a desperate prayer
Em
  Lord, why are you keeping me here?
Dm
Then He said to me,
   F                    Fm
Child I'm planting seeds
C
I'm a good God
and I have a good plan
   Em
So trust that I'm holding a watering can
Dm
And someday you'll see
     F           Fm        C
That flowers grow  in the valley

[Verse 2]
       C
So whatever the reason I'm barely getting by
     Em
I'll trust it's a season knowing that you're by my side
      Dm
Every step of the way
    F           Fm
And I'll be okay

[Chorus]
    C
So I brought it up in a desperate prayer
Em
  Lord, why are you keeping me here?
Dm
Then He said to me,
   F                    Fm
Child I'm planting seeds
C
I'm a good God
and I have a good plan
   Em
So trust that I'm holding a watering can
Dm
And someday you'll see
     F           Fm        C
That flowers grow  in the valley

[Bridge]
          Em
Hmm-hmm-hmm 
    F
Hmm-hmm-hmm

[Verse 3]
Fm     C
  When I'm on the mountain and looking down below
           Em
I'll see a valley of flowers that needed time to grow
         Dm
And I'll thank you for the rain
    F               Fm
The hurt and days of  pain

[Chorus]
        C
And I'll bring it up in a grateful prayer
Em
Thank you Jesus for keeping me there
    F
You know just what I need
  Fm
And you've planted seeds
      C
Cause you're a good God with a real good plan
           Em
And you hold my world
And a watering can
Dm
So I can have peace
      F           Fm        C
Cause flowers grow  in the valley

[Outro]
