Indian Cress

A Cmaj7 A Gmaj7/E

A Cmaj7
My girlfriend
D E
Growing like a weed
A Cmaj7
Some loves are planned,
D E
Others take seed.

Some flowers
Smell like the judgment,
But ours
Is tangy & pungent.

A F
Indian cress
G Gmaj7/E
Undress for success,
bmin7 E
Spicy & sweet
bmin7 E
On the side of the street,
bmin7 E
Your outfit is sexist
bmin7 E
(As) the orange rose of Texas,
c#min7 F#
Listen, my catcalls:
c#min7 F#
Let down your petals.
G Gmaj7/E A
Beautiful Indian cress.

A Cmaj7
My girlfriend
D E
Climbing a fence
A Cmaj7
Some girls depend (on you)
D E
Others pay your rents.

Some demons
Are wise or exotic,
And some poisons
Can be antibiotic.

Indian cress

Undress for success,

Spicy & sweet

On the side of the street,

bmin7 E

Your outfit is racist

bmin7 E

Take off your headdress,

bmin7 E

Clean off your faces,

bmin7 E

Your make-up is running,

c#min7 F#

Your tears are becoming

c#min7 F#

The dew in the morning,

c#min7 F#

Listen, my catcalls:

c#min7 F#

Let down your petals.

G Gmaj7/E A

Beautiful Indian cress.
