#1.
G                                Em
I keep hearing you're concerned about my happiness.
    A                                    D
But all that thought you're giving me is conscience,

I guess.
   G                               Em
If I were walking in your shoes, I wouldn't worry none.
      A
While you and your friends are worrying about me, I'm
D
having lots of fun.

CHORUS:
         Em
Counting flowers on the wall,

That don't bother me at all.

Playing solitaire till dawn, with a deck of 51.
        C
Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo,
               D   D7              D
now don't tell me..I've nothing to do.

#2.
     G                                  Em
Last night I dressed in tails pretended I was on the town.
   A                                D
As long as I can dream it's hard to slow this swinger down.
    G                                      Em
So, please don't give a thought to me, I'm really doing fine.
A                                D
You can always find me here, I'm having quite a time.

CHORUS:
         Em

#3.
     G                             Em
It's good to see you, I must go, I know I look a fright.
A                       D
Anyway, my eyes are not accustomed to this light.
G                               Em
And my shoes are not accustomed to this hard concrete.
      A                           D
So, I must go back to my room and make my day complete.

                D    D7              D
Now, don't tell me...I've nothing to do.
