Lawn Full of Marigolds, Joshua James

Verse 1:
  A            E       A          E
I moved myself west to find a philosophy
   A          E          B
To learn my geography at best
	  A		E	  A		   E
Where the mountains are cold, the rain drops it's tears I'm told
	     A	    E			B
Amongst the ashes a heart of gold, they say
             C#m       A              B
I guess it's best to imagine it that way


So I bought me a book to teach me the ways of God

To open my tarnished heart from it

Started praising the Lord, talking in tongues and code

I did repairs on my broken road back home

I guess it's better than being alone

Chorus:
           E
And now to death: I'm dying
   B
To love: I'm trying
   C#m              A
To God: I'm lying again
          E
And to my Ma: I've failed you
      B
To my Pa: I blamed you
       C#m          B           A
And to God: I have shamed you again

Interlude: E  B  C#m  A  B
