F Dm
[Verse 1]
F
There's poison ivy in the garden
Dm
Poison ivy in the garden
Bb
Climbing up the trees
G
Eating up the happy flowers
F
Dandelions in the yard
Dm
Dozens of them growing wild
Bb
Why don't I just pull the weeds?
G
Am I really such a coward?
[Bridge]
F
I used to spend so much time
Dm
Wandering around outside
Bb
Now I've got too much on my mind
G
Now I've got too much on my mind
[Chorus]
F
If you won't leave me alone
Dm
I hope poison ivy grows
Bb
I hope poison ivy grows
G F
I hope poison ivy grows in your garden too
[Interlude}
F Dm
[Verse 2]
F
I spend hours, but I don't know
Dm
Why my garden doesn't grow
Bb
Who knows what the reason is
G
Maybe I'm just a lousy gardener
[Bridge]
F
I used to spend so much time
Dm
Wandering around outside
Bb
Now I've got too much on my mind
G
Now I've got too much on my mind
[Chorus]
F
If you won't leave me alone
Dm
I hope poison ivy grows
Bb
I hope poison ivy grows
G F
I hope poison ivy grows in your garden too
