Intro:  G#m 
(strum in-between lead guitar) 
 

B                           G#m 
I keep hearin' your concern about my happiness 
    C#7                                    F# 
But all that thought you've given me is, conscience I guess 
      B                            G#m 
If I were walkin' in your shoes, I wouldn't worry none 
      C#7                                             F# 
While you and your friends are worryin''bout me, I'm havin'lots of fun 


           G#m                                              G#m B G#m 
   Countin' flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at all 
           G#m                                          G#m B G#m 
   Playin' solitaire 'til dawn, with a deck of fifty-one 
            E 
   Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo 
                  F#     E 
   Now don't tell me  
                  F#     E 
   I've nothin' to do  
 
 
      B                                 G#m 
Last night I dressed in tails, pretended I was on the town 
    C#7                              F# 
As long as I can dream it's hard to slow this swinger down 
  B                                       G#m 
So please don't give a thought to me, I'm really doin' fine 
C#7                             F# 
You can always find me here and havin' quite a time 
 

           G#m                                              G#m B G#m 
   Countin' flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at all 
           G#m                                          G#m B G#m 
   Playin' solitaire 'til dawn, with a deck of fifty-one 
            E 
   Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo 
                  F#     E 
   Now don't tell me  
                  F#     E 
   I've nothin' to do  
 
--Solo ->  
G#m        E     F# E   F# E   F# E   F# E 
 
      B                            G#m 
It's good to see you, I must go, I know I look a fright 
 C#7                     F# 
Anyway, my eyes are not accustomed to this light 
 B                             G#m 
And my shoes are not accustomed to this hard concrete 
C#7                              F# 
So I must go back to my room and make my day complete 
 
--Chorus 
           G#m                                              G#m B G#m 
   Countin' flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at all 
           G#m                                          G#m B G#m 
   Playin' solitaire 'til dawn, with a deck of fifty-one 
            E 
   Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo 
                  F#     E 
   Now don't tell me  
                  F#     E 
   I've nothin' to do 
                  F#     E
