 1. Standing  at the crossroads
  Trying  to read the signs
  To tell me which  way I should
  Go  to find the answer
  And all  the time I know
  Plant your love  and let it grow
 Chorus.  Let it grow,  let it grow
   Let it blossom,  let it flow
   In the sun,  the rain, the snow
   Love is lovely,  let it grow
 2. Looking for a reason
  To check out on my mind
  Trying hard to find a friend
  That I can count on
  There's nothing left to show
  Plant our love and let it grow
 Chorus.
 Bridge.  > 2x
 3. Time is getting shorter
  There's much for me to do
  ?
  ?
  The rest is up to you
  Plant your love and let it grow
 Chorus.

  Standing  at the crossroads  try'n'  to read the signs  to tell me
  which  way I should go  to find the answer  and all  the time I know,
  plant  your love  and let it grow.
 | Let it grow, let it  grow,  let it blossom  let it flow
  - In  the sun, the rain, the snow, love  is lovely  let it grow
  Looking  for a reason  to check  out an my mind,  trying hard  to get
  a friend  that I can count  on, but there's nothing  left to show,
  plant  your love  and let it grow.
  CHORUS
  Time  is getting shorter,  there's much  for you to do,
   only ask  and you will get  what you are needing,  the rest  is up to you,
   plant your love  and let it grow.
  CHORUS
 
Standin'  at the crossroads,  tryin'  to read the signs
To  tell me which  way I should go  to find the answer
 And all  the time I know,
Plant  your love  and let it grow.
Let  it grow, let it grow,
Let  it blossom,  let it flow,
In  the sun, the rain, the snow,
Love  is lovely,
let  it grow.
 This is the basic structure for the verses and chorus. For the
 instrumental part with the dobro solo, the chords go: G, D/F, Em, Bm, A,
 This part is sort of difficult to learn, but if you listen to the song it
 should become clear eventually.
 Hope this helps.
