You belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
Sail away, kill off the hours
You belong somewhere you feel free

Run away, find you a lover
Go away somewhere all bright and new
I have seen no other
Who compares with you

You belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
You belong with your love on your arm
You belong somewhere you feel free

Run away, go find a lover
Run away, let your heart be your guide
You deserve the deepest of cover
You belong in that home by and by

You belong among the wildflowers
You belong somewhere close to me
Far away from your trouble and worry
You belong somewhere you feel free
You belong somewhere you feel free

Chris Hillman

Chris Hillman (1944- ) is a bluegrass musician best known as the founding bassist for legendary 60s pop group The Byrds and for his pioneering work in country rock with Gram Parsons and The Flying Burrito Brothers.

As the Byrds grew to be one of the most popular groups of their time, internal strife within the band forced them apart, though Hillman kept on as long as he could. By his last album with them, 1968’s Sweetheart of the Rodeo, he and McGuinn were the only ones left in a wholly unrecognizable band. Now helmed by Gram Parsons, the group was a full-fledged country band. When Parsons left shortly after, Hillman went with him to help form The Flying Burrito Brothers. He was also a member of Stephen Stills‘ Manassas throughout their run.

Since the 1970s, Hillman has enjoyed some success with his solo career and the Desert Rose Band. He continues to record and occasionally perform to this day.
