FLOWER OF THE EVERGLADES
As recorded by Joe Stamm feat. Charles Wesley Godwin
(2024 release)



[Intro]
C


[Verse 1]
C                                     Am
The house sits lonely, defiant of the sea
  G                             F              C
A monument of heartache lies at rest in Wilson Key
                          Am
Born of another time, its design of another world
G                       F                C
Footings in the sand, a brick and mortar pearl


[Verse 2]
C                                                         Am
There was an oil man from Texas, pockets deepers than his wells
           G                             F                  C
Fell for a Flower of the Everglades, she drowned him in her swells
                                                     Am
When he asked her to marry, she said yes, but with a price
  G                           F        C
A mansion by the sea, looking over paradise


[Chorus]
    G                  Am
And how she loved that home
G                      Am
Furious as a hurricane can storm
C              G              C   G/B      Am
Planted in the sand under the sun over the keys
  C             G                          Am     G Am
A Flower of the Everglades, living out her dreams


[Verse 3]
C                                    Am
Kids need raisin and a husband needs love
      G                                 F              C
She'd give em all they needed while her own roof sits above
                                               Am
Thirteen years of sunsets, peaking through the palms
G                                   F              C
Storms blew in and out, the mansion always holding strong


[Verse 4]
C                                         Am
Sirens sing on Labor Day, nineteen thirty-five
  G                    F               C
A hurricane destroyer, no one could survive
                                                        Am
Her family begged and pleaded, finally forced to drive away
    G                         F        C
Her silhouette defiant in the violent ocean spray


[Chorus]
    G                  Am
And how she loved that home
G                      Am
Furious as a hurricane can storm
C              G              C   G/B      Am
Planted in the sand under the sun over the keys
  C             G                          Am     G Am
A Flower of the Everglades, living out her dreams


[Bridge]
     F                          G
From backyard views in bedrooms inside foster homes
               Am                              F
She dreamed of seagull cries in paradise and a place to call her own
                              G
A promise to the ocean, if it found her she would stay
       Am                             F
And it holds her in its rhythms, ever whispering her name
                                        G  Am G F
Flower of the Everglades, Flower of the Everglades
                        G  C
Flower of the Everglades


[Verse 5]
C                                          Am
The oil man long dead, her children up and grown
G                          F                 C
Still refuse to sell their mother's precious home
                                     Am
The ocean her grave, the mansion her stone
G                                 F               C
Carved with a Flower this part of Florida's never known
