Intro: Em C G D x2

Verse:
Em                C                   G                     D
Iʼve walked the distance, I paid my dues and tried to have a go
             Em               C     G        D
At what I thought I knew was real, held no appeal
Em              C
Iʼve been to places, Iʼve seen the tidings,
G           D
I bought a book of rules
            Em              C G D
for every coin that I could steal

     Em    C      G     D        Em C G               D
And so I came to gaze upon the stars, when they were yet unborn
     Em   C        G      D      Em C          G          D
And consequently, tear at my old scars, and the mask I had outworn

Pre-chorus:
Em            C      G  D
So when Iʼm crying alone
Em               C        G  D
Yeah, when Iʼm cold as a dying stone

Chorus:
Em          C       G   D
Grow me a garden of roses
Em             C        G    D
Paint me the colors of sky and rain
Em            C              G   D
Teach me to speak with their voices
Em           C            G   D
Show me the way and Iʼll try again

Em C G D x2

Verse:
Em                C
Iʼve heard the rumors, started fires,
G                     D
I sowed a sordid lot of plays for keeps for what I
Em               C     G     D
Behold the demons that I freed
Em              C
Iʼve tried my best at wearing the hard hat,
G                     D
But healing doesnʼt seem to happen when you
Em       C G D
Away the seed

     Em    C      G     D        Em C G               D
And so I came across the medicine man, and he showed me what Iʼd forlorn
     Em   C        G      D      Em C          G          D
For if Iʼm stayed it happens by my own hand, and my own voice full of scorn

Pre-chorus:
Em            C      G  D
So when Iʼm crying alone
Em               C        G  D
Yeah, when Iʼm cold as a dying stone

Chorus:
Em          C       G   D
Grow me a garden of roses
Em             C        G    D
Paint me the colors of sky and rain
Em            C              G   D
Teach me to speak with their voices
Em           C            G   D
Show me the way and Iʼll try again

Bridge:
D   Em            D          C
Without you Iʼm nothing at all
D    Em            D        C       D
And life has the face of a morbid game
     Em                D     C
With you nothing is impossible
   D            Em       C  Em
It all seems to fit the frame

Pre-chorus:
Em            C      G  D
So when Iʼm crying alone
Em               C        G  D
Yeah, when Iʼm cold as a dying stone

Chorus:
Em          C       G   D
Grow me a garden of roses
Em             C        G    D
Paint me the colors of sky and rain
Em            C              G   D
Teach me to speak with their voices
Em           C            G   D
Show me the way and Iʼll try again

Em          C       G   D
Grow me a garden of roses
Em             C        G    D
Paint me the colors of sky and rain
Em            C              G   D
Teach me to speak with their voices
Em           C            G   D
Show me the way and Iʼll try again

Em          C       G   D
Grow me a garden of roses
Em             C        G    D
Paint me the colors of sky and rain
Em            C              G   D
Teach me to speak with their voices
Em           C            G   D
Show me the way and Iʼll try again
