Nothing But Flowers by Guster Great cover of a classic song by The Talking Heads, on Guster on Ice. Hope you all enjoy. Capo 3rd fret Intro: G - G - D - C (repeat) G Bm Here we stand like an Adam and an Eve Am D A waterfall, the garden of Eden. G Bm Two fools in love, so beautiful and strong, Am D The birds in the trees are smiling upon them. F# F#sus4 From the age of the dinosaurs F# F#sus4 Cars have run on gasoline, G Bm Where, where have they gone? Am D Now, it's nothing but flowers. Chorus: G There was a factory, D C G Now there are mountains and rivers! D C (You got it, you got it) G We caught a rattlesnake, D C G Now we've got something for dinner D C (You got it, you got it) A This was a shopping mall, E D A Now it's all covered with flowers E D (You got it, you got it) A If this is paradise, E D A I wish I had a lawn mower! E D (You got it, you got it) Interlude: G - G - D - C (repeat) G Bm Years ago I was an angry young man, Am D I'd pretend that I was a billboard: G Bm Standing tall by the side of the road, Am D I fell in love with a beautiful highway. F# F#sus4 This used to be real estate, F# F#sus4 Now it's only fields and trees. G Bm Where, where is the town? Am D Now, it's nothing but flowers. Am E The highways and cars Am E Were sacrificed for agriculture. Cm G I thought that we'd start over C D But I guess I was wrong. Chorus: G Once there were parking lots D C G Now it's a peaceful oasis D C (You got it, you got it) G This was a Pizza Hut D C G Now it's covered with daisies D C (You got it, you got it) A I miss the honky tonks, E D A Dairy Queens, and 7-Elevens. E D (You got it, you got it) A And as things fell apart, E D A Nobody paid much attention. E D (You got it, you got it) Interlude: A - A - A - E - D (repeat) A I dream of cherry pies, E D A Candy bars and chocolate chip cookies E D (You got it, you got it) A We used to microwave E D A Now we just eat nuts and berries E D (You got it, you got it) A This was a discount store E D A Now it's turned into a cornfield E D (You got it, you got it) A Don't leave me stranded here, E D A I can't get used to this lifestyle. www.TAB6.com
