G Em
I keep hearing you're concerned about my happiness
A7 D7
But all that thought you're giving me is conscience I guess
G Em
If I was walking in your shoes I wouldn't worry none
A7 D7
While you and your friends are worried about me I'm having lots of fun
Em
Counting flowers on the wall that don't bother me at all
Em
Playing solitaire till dawn with a deck of fifty-one
C
Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo

Now don't tell me I've nothing to do
G Em
Last night I dressed in tails pretended I was on the town
A7 D7
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
A7 D7
You can always find me here I'm having quite a time
Em
Counting flowers on the wall that don't bother me at all
Em
Playing solitaire till dawn with a deck of fifty-one
C
Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo
D7 C D7
Now don't tell me I've nothing to do
G Em
It's good to see you I must go I know I look a fright
A7 D7
Anyway my eyes are not accustomed to this light
G Em
And my shoes are not accustomed to this hard concrete
A7 D7
So I must go back to my room and make my day complete
Em
Counting flowers on the wall that don't bother me at all
Em
Playing solitaire till dawn with a deck of fifty-one
C
Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo
D7 C D7
Now don't tell me I've nothing to do
C D7 C D7
Don't tell me I've nothing to do
