Say you wanna see my garden 
And you wanna make it shine 
Say you wanna see my blue jeans 
                           G7 
Hanging on your old clothesline 

C                        D/F# 
Standing in the backdoor crying 
G                   C 
Now you wanna be my friend 
E7                           A   Am

That's the way the whole thing ends
 

verse 2:

Dressing up in banker's clothes?

Doing with a bloody nose?

verse 3: 
Now once you had a hook and ladder 
Up into the headless night 
And once you had a motorcycle 
                         G7 
But you couldn't ride it right 

C                       D/F#

Someone said something one time 
But Daddy didn't talk too loud 
People oughta stick together 
                         G7 
That's the way to make a crowd 

C                           D/F#

Momma's in the beauty parlour 
And Daddy's in the baseball pool 
Sister's at the drive-in movie

Brother's in the old high school
