[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
G C G
In the time of the harvest, leaves falling down
G D G
I held what my true love could reap from the ground
G C G
But the bounty of a garden can all rot away
G D G
Without love and protection and a hard will to stay
[Chorus]
C G
I'll never have a garden again
G D
Where I fall to my knees and work with the land
G C
Now I'm just praying with two dirty hands
G D G
I'll never, no never, have a garden again
[Verse 2]
G C G
For the land, it can dry up and seasons will change
G D G
A weak love will falter and hearts rearrange
G C G
Gardens need sunshine and gardens need rain
G D G
And my tears are too salty to water the garden
[Chorus]
C G
But I'm dreamin' of a garden again
G D
Where I fall to my knees and work with the land
G C
Till then I'll be praying with two dirty hands
G D G
I'm dreamin', yes, dreamin' of a garden again
[Verse 3]
G C G
Now me and my new love, the seeds for to sow
G D G
Are tending the soil and plantin' the rows
G C G
For after the winter comes springtime again
G D G
And the garden can grow like a heart that can mend
[Chorus]
C G
I'm livin' in the garden again
G D
Where I fall to my knees and work with the land
G C
And I keep on praying with two dirty hands
G D G
I'm livin', yes, livin' in the garden again
G D G
I'm livin', yes, livin' in the garden again
[Outro]
G
