transcribed by Vince ....email: AussieVs@aol.com.......i've never tabbed

stuff on here before so if it's confusing ...please forgive me...

Pickin' the song sounds really nice

(Capo on the first fret)

Intro: G....Bm.....C

G Bm C (then walk it down) Am

Little boys and little girls dream of big, big things. They're taught

D G

at a tender age just what life should bring. Get a job say I do and

C (walk it down) Am D

settle yourself down. But what about those of us whose lives are

still spinnin' around.

(Chorus)

C D G

Tell me what's so great about picket fences. Paintin' them's such a

C D

mess. And a big back yard where kids can play. I'd probably

G C D

never get a moment's rest. And settin' the table for five at five.

Bm A C

G

Only means more dishes to load. What's so great about picket

Am D G

fences. I guess i'll never know.

G.....Bm.....C

(same as the first time)

Here i am in my prime at least they tell me so. And if i go to sleep

at night I always go alone. I guess that I could have it all and

someone by my side. But I can't take the give and take the price

is just too high.

(REPEAT CHORUS)

C G Am

Tell me what's so great about picket fences. I guess I'lllllllll

D G

never know.
