Where it's clean and it's quiet

Only trouble was, I had to buy it
CHORUS:

Cut my hair and shine my shoes
G#m D#m
Keep on singing the blues

If I can stay here
N.C. F# B E F#
In Johnny's garden

There's a swift road lies over the grasses

Dipping now and then to take juice and breakfast
B E F#
This I come and go in my travels
B E
I watched that blow and unravel

They bring me peace and quiet hours
