                        "Flowers On The Wall"
                            (Lew DeWitt)

Verse 1:

        C                                 Am
        I keep hearin' you're concerned about my happiness
            D7                                   G
        But all that thought you've given me is conscience I guess
              C                            Am
        If I were walkin' in your shoes, I wouldn't worry none
               D7                                              G
        While you and your friends are worryin' 'bout me, I'm havin' lots
            of fun

Chorus:

                  Am 
        Countin' flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at all
        Playin' solitaire 'til dawn, with a deck of fifty-one
                 F
        Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' "Captain Kangaroo"
                       G
        Now don't tell me
         F               G
        I've nothin' to do

Verse 2:

        Last night I dressed in tails, pretended I was on the town
        As long as I can dream it's hard to slow this swinger down
        So please don't give a thought to me, I'm really doin' fine
        You can always find me here and havin' quite a time

        [repeat chorus]

Verse 3:

        It's good to see you, I must go, I know I look a fright
        Anyway, my eyes are not accustomed to this light
        And my shoes are not accustomed to this hard concrete
        So I must go back to my room and make my day complete

        [repeat chorus]

Coda:

         F         G
        Don't tell me
         F               G
        I've nothin' to do

        G                 C
