The Gardener Chords & Tabs
Song: The Gardener
Artist: The Tallest Man on Earth
Album: Shallow Grave (2008)
Label: Gravitation
Tabbed by: sleepnwithsound
Uploaded: July 31, 2012
Notes : This is my first chording, so it is sure to have flaws.
It is a very simplistic version of the song, with no Open D, so it will
sound off if you try playing along with the song.
Capo 4 also works fairly well.
Please direct any comments, questions, etc., to my ultimate-guitar.com mailbox.
Chords are at the bottom of the page. Thanks!
*The G6-G progression is optional. It works fine with G-G

Standard Tuning (EBGDAE)
Capo 3
Intro: G C D G C D
G6 G/F# Em C7
I sense a runner in the garden
C D G
Although my judgment's known to fail
G6 G/F# Em C7
Once built a steamboat in a meadow
C D G
Cause I'd forgotten how to sail
C7 Dsus G
I know the runner's going to tell you
C7 Dsus G
There ain't no cowboy in my hair
C7 Dsus G
So now he's buried by the daisies
C7 Dsus G6
So I could stay the tallest man in your eyes, babe
G6 G/F# Em C7
I sense a spy up in the chimney
C D G
From all the evidence I've burned
G6 G/F# Em C7
I guess he'll read it in the smoke now
C D G
And soon to ashes I'll return

C7 Dsus G
I know the spy is going to tell you
C7 Dsus G
It's not my flag up in the pole
C7 Dsus G
So now he's buried by the lilies
C7 Dsus G
So I could stay forever more in your eyes, babe
G6 G/F# Em C7
I sense a leak inside my phone now
C D G
From all the lies that I have told
G6 G/F# Em C7
I know he has your private number
C D G
And soon he'll make that vicious call
C7 Dsus G
I know the leak is going to tell you
C7 Dsus G
There ain't no puppy in your leash
C7 Dsus G
So now he'll fertilize the roses
C7 Dsus G C7 Dsus
So I could stay the king you see in your eyes, babe
Dsus G
In your eyes, babe
C7 Dsus G
C7 Dsus G
D7 D
G6 G/F# Em C7
So now we're dancing through the garden
C D G
And what a garden I have made
G6 G/F# Em C7
And now that death will grow my jasmine
C D G
I find it soothing I'm afraid
C7 Dsus G
Now there is no need for suspicion
C7 Dsus G
There ain't no frog kissing your hand
C7 Dsus G
I won't be lying when I tell you
C7 Dsus G C7 Dsus
That I'm a gardner I'm a man in your eyes babe
Dsus G C7 Dsus
In your eyes babe
Dsus G
In your eyes babe
