** I think his guitar is tuned in open D, with a capo somewhere. 
This tab is in standard tuning, with a capo on the 1st fret. **
** Odd verses go G Em C D, even verses go C D G. **

G (320003@1)                     Em (022000@1)    C (x32010@1) I sense a runner in the garden
                                 D (xx0232@1) Although my judgement's known to fail
G (320003@1)                            Em (022000@1)  C (x32010@1)  Once built a steamboat in a meadow
                          D (xx0232@1) Cos I'd forgotten how to sail

C (x32010@1)           D (xx0232@1)               G (320003@1)  I know the runner's going to tell you
C (x32010@1)           D (xx0232@1)               G (320003@1)  There ain't no cowboy in my hair
C (x32010@1)           D (xx0232@1)               G (320003@1)  So now he's buried by the daisies
C (x32010@1)                            D (xx0232@1)               G (320003@1)  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 
In your eyes, babe 

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

Now there is no need for suspicion
There ain't no frog kissing your hand
I won't be lying when I tell you
That I'm a gardner I'm a man

In your eyes, babe 
In your eyes, babe 
In your eyes, babe

** Great song. **
