Intro:
Bm7 - D (riff)
D D/C# Bmin Bmin7(2)
I sense a runner in the garden
G A7 A6
Although my judgment's known to fail
D D/C# Bmin Bmin7(2)
Once built a steamboat in a meadow
G A7 A6
Cause I'd forgotten how to sail
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_tallest_man_on_earth/the_gardener_crd.html ]
G A7 D (riff)
I know the runner's going to tell you
G A7 D (riff)
There ain't no cowboy in my hair
G A7 D (riff)
So now he's buried by the daisies
G A7
So I could stay the tallest man in your eyes, babe
I sense a spy up in the chimney
From all the evidence I've burned
I guess he'll read it in the smoke now
And soon to ashes I'll return
I know the spy is going to tell you
It's not my flag up in the pole
So now he's buried by the lilies
So I could stay forever more in your eyes, babe
I sense a leak inside my phone now
From all the lies I have told
I know he has your private number
And soon he'll make that vicious call
I know the leak is going to tell you
There ain't now puppy in your leash
So now he'll fertilize the roses
So I could stay the king you see
In your eyes, babe (x2)
Interlude: Dmute (4 Bars) D (4 Bars)
Dmute D/C#mute Bm
So now we're dancing through the garden
G A7 A6
And what a garden I have made
Dmute D/C#mute Bm
And now that death will grow my jasmine
G A7 A6
I find it soothing I'm afraid
G A7 D (riff)
Now there is no need for suspicion
G A7 D (riff)
There ain't no frog kissing your hand
G A7 D (riff)
I won't be lying when I tell you
G A7
That I'm a gardner I'm a man
A7 D (riff)
In your eyes babe (x2)
A7 Bmin
In your eyes babe.
