When Your Gardens Overgrown

F

[verse 1]

F
Bobby's off on holiday, Away across 
the sea
C
Setting up his easel, A new scene to
 see
F
Says that he's had enough, Of 
standing in the rain
C                                 
Now he's looking for the good 
  Bb
life, With European pain

[chorus]

Dm                C            Bb
Did you know your garden's overgrown
            F
And what is shown?

[verse 2]

F
Meeting all these pretty girls 
Singing golden hair
C
He's in touch with the painter's 
mind And Syd's unflinching stare

F
Drinking wine in the Moulin Rouge 
Sipping kaffee in Berlin
C                                
Might take in the colored lights In 
Bb
the city they call sin

[chorus]

Dm               C              Bb
He could see The writing on the wall
         F
Ten feet tall

Dm                C            Bb
Did you know your garden's overgrown
            F
And what is shown?

[bridge]

D                Dm
But oh there are times
   Bb                              
He wished the world Would fade just
      Am
 into sight
D                         Dm
And oh, the feelings that changed
     Bb                            
Were thicker than the brush strokes
    Am
 of fame

F

[Verse 3]

F
Now he rides the dirt roads of old 
southern Spain
C
And when senoritas sing He can hear 
them say

[chorus]

Dm                C            Bb
Did you know your garden's overgrown
            F
And what is shown?

Dm               C              Bb
He could see The writing on the wall
         F
Ten feet tall
