You say you wake up crying
Yes and you don’t know why
You get up and you go lay down
Inside my baby’s room
Yeah, I guess I’m doing ok
I moved in with the strangest guy
Can you believe he actually thinks
That I am really alive
Chorus:
G B7 Em
I will buy you a garden
C
Where your flowers can bloom
G B7 Em
I will buy you a new car
C
Perfect shiny and new
G B7 Em
I will buy you that big house
C
Way up in the west hills
G B7 C
I will buy you a new life
C
Yes I will
- repeat Verse progression -
Yes, I know all about that other guy
The handsome man with athletic thighs
I know about all the time before
With that obsessive little rich boy
They might make you think you’re happy
Yeah maybe for a minute or two
They can’t make you laugh
No they can’t make you feel the way that I do

G B7 Em
I will buy you a garden

Where your flowers can bloom
G B7 Em
I will buy you a new car

Perfect shiny and new

Way up in the west hills

I will buy you a new life

I will buy you a new life
I know we can never look back

Will you please let me stay the night

Will you please let me stay the night

No one will ever know
