       The Gardener



 G         D            Em
I sense a runner in the garden
 C          D                   Am
Although my judgements known to fail
 G           D              Em
Once built a steamboat in a meadow
 C        D              Am
Cos I'd forgotten how to sail

 G          D                 Em
I know the runner's going to tell you
 C             D            Em
There ain't no cowboy in my hair
 G           D             Em
So now he's buried by the daisies
 C                          D                  G
So I could stay the tallest man in your eyes, babe

(strum for about four beats before next verse)

 G        D               Em
I sense a spy up in the chimney
 C           D             Am
From all the evidence I've burned
 G              D            Em
I guess he'll read it in the smoke now
 C           D          Am
And soon to ashes I'll return

 G          D              Em
I know the spy is going to tell you
 C           D             Em
It's not my flag up in the pole
 G           D             Em
So now he's buried by the lilies
 C                       D                  G
So I could stay forever more in your eyes, babe

(strum for about four beats before next verse)

 G        D               Em
I sense a leak inside my phone now
 C           D            Am
From all the lies I have told
 G         D                Em
I know he has your private number
 C              D                Am
And soon he'll make that vicious call

 G          D                Em
I know the leak is going to tell you
 C              D             Em
There ain't now puppy in your leash
 G            D             Em
So now he'll fertilize the roses
 C                            D
So I could stay the king you see
               G
In your eyes, babe 
D               G
 In your eyes, babe

(strum for about eight beats before next verse)

 G            D                  Em
So now we're dancing through the garden
 C          D             Am
And what a garden I have made
 G            D                  Em
And now that death will grow my jasmine
 C          D           Am
I find it soothing I'm afraid

 G           D            Em
Now there is no need for suspicion
 C              D                Em
There ain't no frog kissing your hand
 G          D            Em
I won't be lying when I tell you
 C                        D
That I'm a gardner I'm a man
              G
In your eyes babe 
D              G
 In your eyes babe
D              C
 In your eyes babe
