Garage Flowers

B E B E C#m G#m F# B E F# B B My mother was a mail order bride C#m My father was a fool till the day he died G#m F# B So is it any wonder I'm not good enough for you? E F# B I'm just gonna leave these garage flowers and push on through E B Hey honey, I was wondering where you've been C#m Because if you don't ring the bell then you won't get in G#m F# B I'm not getting any younger waiting home alone for you E F# B If you're just gonna leave these garage flowers and push on through E B Hey baby I'll never live up to you in your ivory tower there's not enough room for two For me and you E F# So I sing you my second rate serenade, I bring you half cut flowers and I'm half afraid of you G#m But I'm half in love E Said with a cough B And the price scratched off B My mother only ran with the chosen few E C#m And she would not approve of a man like you G#m F# B But she was never happy, all alone with a bird's eye view E F# B And me I wouldn't mind if you took me down just a peg or two B I don't want too much and I don't know what I need E C#m And a bar on a Friday night is about my speed G#m F# B So meet me in the middle baby, come on down just a peg or two E F# B And we can take a walk around some common ground just me and you E B Hey baby I'll never live up to you in your ivory tower there's not enough room for two For me and you E F# So I sing you my second rate serenade, I bring you half cut flowers and I'm half afraid of you G#m But I'm half in love E Said with a cough B And the sticker pulled off
