[Verse]
A5 F A5 G A#
As sure as anything, as sure as I can be
A5 F A5 G A#
That 99 percent, pure as Ivory
A5 F A5 G A#
I caught the scent, followed the smell of it
A5 F A5 G A#
Couldn't ignore it. Hey, why did you pick on me?
[Interlude]
Dm C
What's that pretty flower I see?
Dm C
Tall and wild it waves at me
Dm C
Mother says it's just a weed
Dm C
Golden Rod, Go-ou-olden Rod
[Chorus]
Gm F D# C
Growing Wild, not in the city. Gave me an allergy
Gm F D# C
And my reaction's, what's going to happen? It gets no help from me
[Bridge]

[Verse]
A5 F A5 G A#
I can't explain it. Maybe I shouldn't try to
A5 F A5 G A#
That old genetic code had a hold on me
A5 F A5 G A#
We go inside it, ran head long into it
A5 F A5 G A#
And mothers' warning, useless to me
[Interlude]
Dm C
What's that pretty flower I see?
Dm C
Tall and wild it waves at me
Dm C
Mother says it's just a weed
Dm C
Golden Rod, Go-ou-olden Rod
[Chorus]
Gm F D# C
Another blonde, not from the city, gave me an allergy.
Gm F D# C
And you can see me drinking the poison, taking it happily

You're running wild, not in the city, gave me an allergy

And my reaction's, what's going to happen? It gets no help from me.
[Outro]
Gm F D# C
Well you will see me drinking the poison, taking it happily
Gm F D# C
You're running wild, You're running wild. Another blonde not
Gm F D# C
from the city drinking the poison taking it happily
Gm F D# C
Not from the city
Gm F D# C
Golden Rod Go-o-olden Rod
Gm F D# C
Golden Rod
