Tulips Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I just happened to be passin'
that little local florist
When a [Am]forget- me- not floated by
Well, that [D]woman wasn't nothin'
but [C]drop dead gorgeous
Couldn't [Am]help but follow [D]her in[G]side

[Verse 2]
Well, she [G]pranced like a princess
over to the tulips
And [Am]picked up a couple for a sniff
Then she [D]busted me watchin'
as [C]I snatched up a few with
A [Am]guilty, clumsy, [D]bashful [G]whiff

[Verse 3]
Well, I [Am]wanted to cower [D]into the flowers
[G]But I spoke be[D]fore I [Em]thought
And I said, "Maybe [Am]your two lips
and [D]my two lips could talk"
[G]

[Verse 4]
Well, she smiled a sheepish grin
and she laughed a precious giggle
Her [Am]cheeks were 'bout
as pink as her toes
And I [D]tried to play it cool,
but [C]I was just as tickled
[Am]Mine were 'bout as [D]red as [G]a rose

[Verse 5]
So we [G]did a little meet and greet two-
step toward the checkout
[Am]Flirted in the back of the line
She [D]pulled up her wallet, and [C]I said,
"Put that down"
[Am]And I took care of h[D]ers and[G] mine

[Verse 6]
I said, [Am]"I'll let you scurry if
[D]you're in a hurry"
"But [G]if you've got the
[D]evenin' [Em]off"
"Maybe [Am]your two lips and [D]my
two lips could walk"
[G]

[Verse 7]
She said, [E]"Well,
I don't normally [Am]do this"
And I said, [D]"Girl, it ain't like [G]I do"
[Bm]She [E]said, "These are
for my win[Am]dowsill"
And I [D]said, "These are for you"

[Verse 8]
We [G]wandered out that door through
the tiny town of [Am]Fairhope
Far as that sidewalk went
[D]Gently brushin' shoulders,
[C]lightly touchin' elbows
[Am]Purposely on [D]accident[G]

[Verse 9]
Then [G]she lost her sandals
and I lost my ropers
And [Am]we got lost by the bay
[D]Singin' the drifter,
[C]splashin' like lovers
[Am]Under the [D]boardwalk [G]shade

[Verse 10]
Well, our [Am]eyes met in the quiet
of a [D]comfy silence
[G]And I put my h[D]ands on h[Em]er hips
And I said, "Maybe [Am]your two lips
and [D]my two lips could [G]kiss"
And then [Am]her two lips and
[D]my two lips [G]kissed

[Outro 1]
[G][Em][Cm]
