This is the song Century Plant from Camp. Originally by the Artist Victoria Williams. This is my first tab.
And also, you're welcome.
G
Outside my house is a cactus plant
A
they call the century tree
G
Only once in a hundred years
D
it flowers gracefully
G A
and you never know when it will bloom
CHORUS:
D A C
Hey, do you wanna come out
G D
and play the game?
A C G
it's never too late (2x)
C
G Bb F
Clementine Hunter was fifty-four
C G F
before she packed up the pain
c G Bb
Old Uncle Taylor was eighty-one
F C A
when he rode his bike
D A F
across the plains of China (uh-huh)
G D
And the sun was shining on that day
A C G
just like today
CHORUS:
D A C
Hey, do you wanna come out
G D
and play the game?
A C G
it's never too late (2x)
C
G D G
Didn't know how to tell her
G A
for all the thirty years
G A
kept locked up inside himself
G A
and no one saw the tears
G A
and then she went away
G A
and he woke up that day
Em D
now he brings roses to his sweetheart
G A
she lives most anywhere
Em G D
he sees someone suffering
G A
he knows that despair
G A
he offers them a rose
G A
and some quiet prose
G A
'bout dancin' in a shimmering ballroom
G D
'cause you never know when
A
it will bloom
CHORUS:
D A C
Hey, do you wanna come out
G D
and play the game?
A C G
it's never too late (8x)
