Intro: G#m (strum in-between lead guitar)

B G#m

I keep hearin' your concern about my happiness

C#7 F#

But all that thought you've given me is, conscience I guess

B G#m

If I were walkin' in your shoes, I wouldn't worry none

C#7 F#

While you and your friends are worryin''bout me, I'm havin'lots of fun

--Chorus

G#m G#m B G#m

Countin' flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at all

G#m G#m B G#m

Playin' solitaire 'til dawn, with a deck of fifty-one

E

Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo

F# E

Now don't tell me

F# E

I've nothin' to do

B G#m

Last night I dressed in tails, pretended I was on the town

C#7 F#

As long as I can dream it's hard to slow this swinger down

B G#m

So please don't give a thought to me, I'm really doin' fine

C#7 F#

You can always find me here and havin' quite a time

--Chorus

G#m G#m B G#m

Countin' flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at all

G#m G#m B G#m

Playin' solitaire 'til dawn, with a deck of fifty-one

E

Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo

F# E

Now don't tell me

F# E

I've nothin' to do

--Solo -> G#m E F# E F# E F# E F# E

B G#m

It's good to see you, I must go, I know I look a fright

C#7 F#

Anyway, my eyes are not accustomed to this light

B G#m

And my shoes are not accustomed to this hard concrete

C#7 F#

So I must go back to my room and make my day complete

--Chorus

G#m G#m B G#m

Countin' flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at all

G#m G#m B G#m

Playin' solitaire 'til dawn, with a deck of fifty-one

E

Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo

F# E

Now don't tell me

F# E

I've nothin' to do

F# E

Now don't tell me

F# E

I've nothin' to do

--Ending -> G#m (slow strum as in the Intro)
