Intro
G#m F# x4
[Verse 1]
G#m F# G#m F#
You said that you loved me deeply
G#m F# G#m F#
And I called you my queen
G#m F# G#m F#
And remmember when you told me
G#m F# G#m F#
That I had everything you'd ever need
G#m F# G#m F#
My debonair style impressed you
G#m F# G#m F#
But you kept asking where I shop
G#m F# G#m F#
And that day you saw me picking by the roadside
G#m F# G#m F#
Was the day that our romance stopped
F# F# F#
You shouted
[Chorus]
G#m F# G#m F#
Garbage picker, garbage picker, garbage picker
G#m F# G#m F#
Garbage picker, garbage picker, garbage picker
G#m F# G#m F#
Garbage picker, garbage picker, garbage picker
[Instrumental]
F# F# F#
[Verse 2]
G#m F# G#m F#
I find my own treasures
G#m F# G#m F#
In other peoples trash
G#m F# G#m F#
You measured your pleasures by my treasures
G#m F# G#m F#
'Til you measured them against my cash
[Instrumental]
F# F# F#
[Chorus]
G#m F# G#m F#
Garbage picker, garbage picker, garbage picker
G#m F# G#m F# F# F# F#
Mmm all you are is a garbage picker
G#m F# G#m F#
Garbage picker, garbage picker, garbage picker
G#m F# G#m F#
Mmmmmmm ohhh garbage picker, chicken-pick it boys
[Solo]
G#m F# x4
[Interlude]
G#m G#sus4 x3
F# G#m
[Bridge]
C# F# G#m F# G#m F#
Every time I see your car drive by
C# F#
That name echoes in my brain
G#m F# D#
And the tears fill my eyes
[Verse 3]
G#m F# G#m F#
You wish that you found out quicker
G#m F# G#m G#m G#m G#m
You say I didn't tell the truth
G#m F# G#m F#
Okay, I admit it- I'm a garbage picker
G#m F# G#m F#
I guess thats why I picked you
G#m F# G#m F#
I thought that I saw something shining
G#m F# G#m F#
Beneath your superficial dirge
G#m F# G#m F#
You're no hidden treasure
G#m G#m G#m
So next time
G#m
Ill leave you at the curb
[Outro Chorus]
G#m F# G#m F#
Garbage picker, garbage picker, garbage picker
G#m F# G#m F#
Mmm all you are is a garbage picker
G#m F# G#m F#
Garbage picker, garbage Picker, garbage picker
G#m F# G#m
Garbage picker, garbage Picker, garbage picker
