55 BPM - Keys of E Flat and A flat
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
You promised me roses
When you came around
There was nothing but weeds here
Growing out of the ground
I ve given you this
And I ve given you that
I m givin all my love to
Someone who won t give it back
[Chorus]
I m planting flowers on a gravel road
Waiting on a bloom
Trying to make a garden grow
Where nothing ever grew
I give you my attention
I keep you from the cold
But I might as well be planting
Flowers on a gravel road
[Verse 2]
Well, this just ain t working
That much I know
If I didn t love you
I could just let it go
So when you feel like trying
And talking to me
Go to the rock and the hard place
Cause that s where I ll be
[Chorus]
I m planting flowers on a gravel road
Waiting on a bloom
Trying to make a garden grow
Where nothing ever grew
And I give you my attention
I keep you from the cold
But I might as well be planting
Flowers on a gravel road
[Verse 3]
I don t know what s sadder
Fact you don t care
Or the fact of the matter
That I m getting nowhere
Running in circles
And chasing your heart
I can t seem to stop now
Why did I ever start?
[Chorus]
I m planting flowers on a gravel road
Waiting on a bloom
Trying to make a garden grow
Where nothing ever grew
And I give you my attention
I keep you from the cold
But I might as well be planting
Flowers on a gravel road
[Outro]
Oh, I might as well be planting
Flowers on a gravel road
