lyrics

V1:
G
WE FLED TO THE GARDEN
Em
FOR SANCTUARY FROM THE PAIN
G
WE PUT OUR FEET IN THE GROUND
Em
TO HEAL US AGAIN
G
I FELT THE BREEZE AND A LEAF
Em
FALL IN MY SHOULDER
Em
FULL OF LIGHT
G
WE FLED TO THE GARDEN TO FIND A
Em
LIFE AGAIN WE WERE HAPPY TO LIVE

V2:
Am C G
IT WAS THE BEST THING. WE EVER DID.
Am C G
AND FINDING YOU IS THE REASON I DID
Am C G
THRIVING TOOK US A WHILE WE GROW IN TIME
D
AND I EMBRACED.
G Em
A LOVE I COULD NOT TASTE OR IMAGINE
C D G
I FELT THE GARDEN GROWING IN.

V3:>>>>>
Em G
THE CLOUDS BLEW AWAY.
Em G
AND THE LAND IT SWEPT OVER YOUR FACE
Em
THE COLD IT BURNS THROUGH ME
G
YOU KEEP ME WARM IN BED
Em
WHEN THE COLD
G
IT SWEPT AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN.

V4:>>>>>>>
Em G
NOW THE DARK’S TOO MUCH TO BEAR
Em G
AND MY HOPE FLOATS IN THE AIR
Em
THEY REACH US IN TIME
G
THE DAY GROWS NEAR
D
REACH FOR THE SKY
G
HERE’S TO ANOTHER LIFE
Em
YOU AND I
C D G
AND THE GARDEN KEEPS GROWING IN.

V5:
Am C G
WE FOUND THE SCARS ON YOUR FACE
Am C G
THEY WERE WRITTEN SOME OTHER PLACE
D
DOWN DEEP INSIDE
Am C G
WE SAW THE ACHING OF YOUR BACK
Am
WE WISHED WE COULD HAVE DONE MORE
C G
TO HELP YOU REACH UP TO THE STARS

V6:
D Am C G
I know I KNOW WE’VE BEEN HAVING A HARD TIME
D Am C G
I know, I KNOW WE’VE BEEN HAVING A HarD TIME RECENTLY
D Am C G
I KNOW. I KNOW YOU’VE BEEN MISSING YOU, YOU’VE BEEN MISSING ME

V7
D Am C G D
:….AND I SAW……. THE SCARS ON YOUR FACE…..
D Am C G D
THEY WERE MADE….. BY RIVERS CARVING A DEEP
D Am C
ETCH ON THE CREVICE OFYOUR SOUL
G D
MY HANDS HAD FELT THIS PLACE
Am C
AND I SAW THE EVIDENCE THAT THE RAIN
G D
HAD POURED OVER YOUR FACE


BRIDGE:

G Em
AND….. THE LEAVES FELL IN BLOOM
G
AND….
Em
THE GARDEN GREW
G
AND
Em G
OUR DREAMS GREW US INTO THE SKY
Em
AND
G
WE CLIMBED THROUGH ROCK, SAND AND
Em
AND
G Em
THE RAIN BENT OVER OUR ARMS

V7:
G Em
AND THE WAVES BROKE AND CRASHED INTO
G Em
SOME UN RHYME-ABLE TUNE
G
WE CAN’T STOP HUMMING & TAPPING.
Em G
WHEN EVERYTHING…. JUST WORKS OUT
Em
LIKE IT SHOUlD, LIKE TREE WHEN YOU
G
SING IT TO SLEEP
Em
AND THE WIND IS SWEET
G Em
WHEN THE PEOPLE COME OUT AND THEY TALK FREELY
G Em
WHEN WE LISTEN INTENTLY TO EVERYTHING
G Em
IN THE MOMENT WE ARE GROWING AND WE FEEL

WE FEEL

Gm>>>>>>>>>>>>>End
WHERE THE GARDEN GROW
& WE KNOW
3X END
