Tom: G
G G
Of all the saddest words
C C
That I have ever heard
D D
The saddest is the story
D G
Told me by a bird.
G G
He had spent about an hour
C C
Chatting with a flower,
D D G
And here's the tale the flower told:
[Chorus]
G G C
I'm a lonely little petunia in an onion patch,
D G
An onion patch, an onion patch.
G G C
I'm a lonely little petunia in an onion patch,
D D G
And all I do is cry all day.
C G
Boo hoo! Boo hoo!
C C G D
The air is so strong, it takes my breath away.
G G C
I'm a lonely little petunia in an onion patch,
D G
Oh won't you come and play with me?
[Verse]
G G
He put me in this bed,
C C
I'll bet his face is red.
D D
I call him down with every
G G
Teardrop that I shed.
G G
If I only had him here,
C C
I'd take him by the ear
D D G
And make him share my misery.
[Chorus]
G G C
I'm a lonely little petunia in an onion patch,
D G
An onion patch, an onion patch.
G G C
I'm a lonely little petunia in an onion patch,
D D G
And all I do is cry all day.
C G
Boo hoo! Boo hoo!
C C G D
The air is so strong, it takes my breath away. (sigh)
G G C
I'm a lonely little petunia in an onion patch,
D G
Oh won't you come and play with me?
