From the musical, Little Shop Of Horrors
Adim* x0121x
I've given you sunshine
Gm -
I've given you dirt.
Eb7 - Ab
You've given me nothing
But heartache and hurt.
I'm beggin' you sweetly.
I'm down on my knees.
- -
Oh, please-grow for me!
I've given you plant food
Gm -
And water to sip.
Eb7 - Ab
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.
Eb/G -
You're barely alive.
Eb7 - Ab - Adim* -
I've tried you at levels of moisture
Eb/Bb--E7b9--Cm -
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.
Gm -
I've given you rain.
Eb7 - Ab
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!
