bishop allen - shrinking violet

Verse:
G E*
Oh my shrinking violets,
D G
I left my Basket of inpatients at your door.
G E*
I bought my tulips for your two lips,
D G
but the bulb don't burn anymore.

Chorus:
E* G
Ain't it a shame just how much rain we got?
E* G
The April showers blot out the sun
E* G
So much dear that your roots still rot
E* D G
And we're waiting til the kingdom come.

Verse
Oh, my shrinking violet
I left my basket of impatience at your door
I brought my tulips for your two lips
But, the bulb don't burn anymore
Chorus
The night chain rain will fall on us
The daffodil's struck down
But, in the morning, glorious
I will wait until the kingdom come
