Intro: D
D G
Good morning dear - I hope I didn't wake you too soon.
D G
Because my mind is growing tired - too much thinking what I should do.
D G
I picture you out there - it must be beautiful this time of year.
D G
All those east coast leaves - floating round like embers from burning trees
A G
oh the weather out here is just the same
Em A D D G
but the garden that you planted remains
D G
Now it's only work - each day bleeding into the next.
D G
Barely scraping by - I tired myself out just so I can rest.
D G
But rest it rarely comes - when it does I cannot go home.
D G
Because it's much too quiet - seems that I'm not suited to being alone.
A G
And everyone around me has changed,
Em A D D G
but the garden that you planted remains
D G
I think about you - maybe more than I should.
D G
But the smoke is getting old - the drugs I'm taking aren't so good.
D G
So will you talk to me - even though you've had a late night?
D G
Because I need a little help - baby tell me I'll be alright.
A G
Cause everything around me has changed,
Em A D
but the garden that you planted remains.
