Tom: F F Dm [Verse 1] F There's poison ivy in the garden Dm Poison ivy in the garden Bb Climbing up the trees G Eating up the happy flowers F Dandelions in the yard Dm Dozens of them growing wild Bb Why don't I just pull the weeds? G Am I really such a coward? [Bridge] F I used to spend so much time Dm Wandering around outside Bb Now I've got too much on my mind G Now I've got too much on my mind [Chorus] F If you won't leave me alone Dm I hope poison ivy grows Bb I hope poison ivy grows G F I hope poison ivy grows in your garden too [Interlude} F Dm [Verse 2] F I spend hours, but I don't know Dm Why my garden doesn't grow Bb Who knows what the reason is G Maybe I'm just a lousy gardener [Bridge] F I used to spend so much time Dm Wandering around outside Bb Now I've got too much on my mind G Now I've got too much on my mind [Chorus] F If you won't leave me alone Dm I hope poison ivy grows Bb I hope poison ivy grows G F I hope poison ivy grows in your garden too [Outro] F Dm Bb G F
