Junk Drawer Chords & Lyrics - Tim Hawkins

Verse 1


[G]Canadian coins and a birthday candle
[G]Allen wrench and a suitcase handle
[C]Fourteen pens that don't work
[G]A new notecard and a button from a shirt
[D]An old antenna, rubber band, and a knob from an unknown door

Chorus 1


In the [C]junk drawer
They're in the kitchen [G]junk drawer
You know I'm wishin' I [D]knew where all this a'came from
Or [G]what we need it for
[C]Pictures of children we don't know
And [G]coupons to places we don't go
And [D]collars from old pets
That [D]ain't alive no more
In the [G]junk drawer

Verse 2


[G]Twisty ties and ketchup packets
[G]A broken string from a tennis racket
[C]Outlet covers, batteries
[G]And ticket stubs from Chuck-E-Cheese
[D]An old cordless phone, and an old phoneless cord

Chorus 2


In the [C]junk drawer
They're in the kitchen [G]junk drawer
You know I'm wishin' I [D]knew where all this a'came from
Or [G]what we need it for
[C]Keys to a car we sold last year
A re[G]d beer koozie and we don't drink beer
A fr[D]iendship bracelet from somebody
I don[D]'t like no more
In the [G]junk drawer

Bridge


[Em]GI Joes and Barbie parts
[G]Milk jug rings and nerf gun darts
[D]A garage door opener remote control
[G](I hope that's a melted tootsie roll)
[C]An airplane made of balsa wood
[G]Don't throw it out; it's still good!
[D]I'd like to throw it all in the fire
[D]Then we could make s'mores

Chorus 3


From th[C]e junk drawer
They're in the kitchen [G]junk drawer
You know I'm wishin' (W[D]ell there's a game boy memory card
Fro[G]m 1994)
[C]Post-it notes and AC adapters
Supe[G]r glue and Grandma's clapper
An e[D]mpty roll of duct tape
A rot[D]ten apple core
In the [G]junk drawer
