"The Gardener"
The Tallest Man on Earth
Tabbed By Wonder96

I've seen several ways out there to play this song but it didn't seem to me any 
of them were completely correct. So this is how I play the song. Listen to the 
song to get the feel and the precise chord changes. Feel free to comment with
any alterations that need to be made.

Song is played with D Tuning but instead of F# it's an E (DADEAd) And capo on 
the 7th fret.

Through out the song there are four little "ditties" he plays. Two during the 
verse and two during the chorus.

VERSE1:
A          E/A          A6     (Ditty1)         
I sense a runner in the garden
Dsus2                           Bm11/A  (Ditty2)
Although my judgements known to fail
A            E/A            A6     (Ditty1)     
Once built a steamboat in a meadow
Dsus2                    Bm11/A         (Ditty2)
Cos I'd forgotten how to sail


CHORUS2:
D6/9       Bm11/A            A         (Ditty3)
I know the runner's going to tell you
D6/9           Bm11/A       A          (Ditty)
There ain't no cowboy in my hat
D6/9        Bm11/A        A            (Ditty3)
So now he's buried by the daisies
D6/9                        Bm11/A            A
So I could stay the tallest man in your eyes, babe


VERSE2:
A         E/A           A6       (Ditty1)     
I sense a spy up in the chimney
Dsus2                      Bm11/A   (Ditty2)
From all the evidence I've burned
A             E/A             A6    (Ditty1)  
I guess he'll read it in the smoke now
Dsus2                  Bm11/A       (Ditty2)
And soon to ashes I'll return


CHORUS2:
D6/9       Bm11/A          A          (Ditty3)
I know the spy is going to tell you 
D6/9        Bm11/A         A          (Ditty4)
It's not my flag up in the pole
D6/9        Bm11/A        A           (Ditty3)
So now he's buried by the lilies 
D6/9                    Bm11/A             A
So I could stay forever more in your eyes, babe


VERSE3:
A         E/A            A6       (Ditty1)   
I sense a leak inside my phone now
Dsus2                    Bm11/A    (Ditty2)
From all the lies I have told
A         E/A              A6     (Ditty1)   
I know he has your private number
Dsus2                            Bm11/A   (Ditty2)
And soon he'll make that vicious call


CHORUS3:
D6/9       Bm11/A            A            (Ditty3)
I know the leak is going to tell you 
D6/9           Bm11/A        A            (Ditty4)
There ain't no puppy in your leash
D6/9         Bm11/A        A              (Ditty3)
So now he'll fertilize the roses 
D6/9                         Bm11/A      
So I could stay the king you see 
              A   E/A  A  E/A  A6 
In your eyes, babe
                   A(Alt)
In your eyes babe

VERSE4:(slower)
             Amaj7               A6         
So now we're dancing through the garden
Dsus2                    Bm11/A     (Ditty2)
And what a garden I have made
A(Alt)            Amaj7          A6   (Ditty1) 
And now that death will grow my jasmine 
Dsus2                  Bm11/A     (Ditty2)
I find it soothing I'm afraid


CHORUS4:
D6/9         Bm11/A       A               (Ditty3)
Now there is no need for suspicion
D6/9           Bm11/A            A        (Ditty4)
There ain't no frog kissing your hand
D6/9       Bm11/A       A                 (Ditty3)
I won't be lying when I tell you 
D6/9                     Bm11/A 
That I'm a gardner I'm a man 
             A  E/A  A6
In your eyes babe 
             A  E/A  A6
In your eyes babe
             Dsus2
In your eyes babe
