Planting Flowers

C

                F
You promised me roses
              C
When you came around
                      G
There was nothing but weeds here
                   C
Growing out of the ground
               F
I've given you this
                   C
And I've given you that
               G
I'm givin' all my love to
                          G
Someone who won't give it back

G                         F
I'm planting flowers on a gravel road
             C
Waiting on a bloom
                 G
Trying to make a garden grow
                   C
Where nothing ever grew
              A#   F
I give you my attention
                    C      Bdim  Am
I keep you from the cold
                       F
But I might as well be planting
G                   C
Flowers on a gravel road

F                     A#
Well, this just ain't working
            F
That much I know
            C
If I didn't love you
        Am          F
I could just let it go
                      A#
So when you feel like trying
               F
And talking to me
                       C
Go to the rock and the hard place
                         C
'Cause that's where I'll be

                          A#
I'm planting flowers on a gravel road
             F
Waiting on a bloom
                 C
Trying to make a garden grow
                   F
Where nothing ever grew
                  D#   A#
And I give you my attention
                    F     C    Dm
I keep you from the cold
                       A#
But I might as well be planting
C                   F
Flowers on a gravel road
F A# C F C

                    F
I don't know what's sadder
               C
Fact you don't care
                   G
Or the fact of the matter
                 C
That I'm getting nowhere
           F
Running in circles
                 C
And chasing your heart
                G
I can't seem to stop now
          Dm   G
Why did I ever start?

                          F
I'm planting flowers on a gravel road
             C
Waiting on a bloom
                 G
Trying to make a garden grow
                   C
Where nothing ever grew
                  A#   F
And I give you my attention
                    C      G    Am
I keep you from the cold
                       F
But I might as well be planting
G                   C   Bm  Am
Flowers on a gravel road

                       F
Oh, I might as well be planting
G                   C
Flowers on a gravel road
