D9 G9
I'm sorry you couldn't make it
D9 G9
You could have seen him, so weathered and dated
E
He was a Johnny Come Lately
A
And I know that you would hate him
D9 G9
If you'd seen his botanical leanings
D9 G9
First prize exhibit and all down to good spirit
E
He was a Johnny Come Lately
A
And I know that you would hate me
D9 G9
If I envied the things that he spoke of
D9 G9
How I envied the things that he thought of
E
He was a Johnny Come Lately
A
And I know that you would hate me
G
If I told you that I made some time and stayed behind
Bm
To find out how to make a garden grow
Gm D
Where the sun no longer shines
Gm
If I asked too many questions and I stayed behind
D
To find out how to make a garden grow
E A
But he never ever gave away the secret of this godforsaken soil
D9 G9
D9 G9
D9 G9
He didn't need us, just tempted and teased us
D9 G9
You could have been here, wishing you were here
E
This was a Johnny Come Lately
A
And I know that you would hate me
E
He was a Johnny Come Lately
A
And I know that you would hate me
G
If I told you that I made some time and stayed behind
Bm
To find out how to make a garden grow
Gm A
Where the sun no longer shines
G
He assured me that the seeds you sold were sound
Bm
But I must have cast them all on stony ground
Gm D
And now the sun won't shine
Gm
I must have asked too many questions
D
And stayed behind to find out how to make a garden grow
E A
But he never ever gave away the secret of this godforsaken soil.
