Intro
G//C/G//C//G//C//G/Em//A//D//
(Chorus)
GCG
Inch by inch, row by row,
CG
Gonna make this garden grow.
CGG/F#Em
Gonna mulch it deep and low,
AD
Gonna make it fertile ground.
GCG
Inch by inch, row by row,
CG
Please bless these seeds I sow.
CGG/F#Em
Please keep them safe below
ADG
'Til the rain comes tumbling down.
GCG
Pullin' weeds and pickin' stones,
CG
We are made of dreams and bones
CGG/F#Em
Need spot to call my own
AD
Cause the time is close at hand.
GCG
Grain for grain, sun and rain
CG
I'll find my way in nature's chain
CGG/F#Em
Tune my body and my brain
ADG
To the music of the land.
(Chorus)
GCG
Plant your rows straight and long,
CG
Season them with a prayer and song
CGG/F#Em
Mother earth will keep you strong
AD
If you give her love and care.
GCG
Old crow watching from a tree
CG
Has his hungry eye on me
CGG/F#Em
In my garden I'm as free
ADG
As that feathered thief up there.
(Chorus 2x)
