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