I ve given you sunshine
-
I ve given you dirt.
-
You ve given me nothing
But heartache and hurt.
D#/A#
I m beggin you sweetly.
/
I m down on my knees.
- -
Oh, please-grow for me!
I ve given you plant food
-
And water to sip.
-
I ve given you potash.
You ve given me zip.
/
Oh God, how I mist you
/
Oh pod, how you tease
- -
Oh, please-
grow for me!
I ve given you southern exposure
To get you to thrive.
I ve pinched you back hard,
Like I m s posed ta.
-
You re barely alive.
- - * -
I ve tried you at levels of moisture
/--E7b9-- -
From desert to mud.
I ve given you grow-lights
And mineral supplements.
What do you want from me- Blood?
I ve given you sunlight.
-
I ve given you rain.
-
Looks like you re not happy,
Less I open a vein.
/
I ll give you a few drops
/
If that ll appease.
/ - -
Now please-
oh please-
- / - / - / - / -- / -- / -- / --
grow for me!
