[Verse 1]
C
I was walking alone
E
And I strolled past you there
F
Watering your plants
D7
Working in your garden
[Bridge 1]
C E
But the hose wasn’t on
Am F
There’s no sun in the sky
G
And I’m like why?
[Chorus]
F
Why do your trees blossom
C E
How does your fruit taste sweet
C
How does your grass
E Am
Burst right through the snow oh oh
F
Tell me how does your garden
C
How does your garden grow?
[Verse 2]
C
I was walkin again
E
And I went past you there
F
Sittin by your tree
D7
Chompin on a peach or three
[Bridge 2]
C E
But the soil was all cracked
Am F
There’s no seeds in the ground
G
and I’m like how?
[Chorus]
F
Why do your trees blossom
C E
How does your fruit taste sweet
C
How does your grass
E Am
Burst right through the snow oh oh
F
Tell me how does your garden
C
How does your garden grow?
[Elision]
F
Honeysuckle smells so sweet
C G
Next to the daffodils we sowed last week
F
Poppies and daisies and peonies and ferns
C G
Growing lined up all in turn
F C G
Rain and sun and wind and snow
F
I will never understand
C G
How your garden still grows
F C G
How does your garden still thrive
F C G
When all my plants so soon did die
F C G
How when there’s rainfall and snow
F
Does your garden
C G
Garden still grow
F
The roots are all dead
C G
But the leaves are still green
F C G
Why isn’t this me
F C G
Why isn’t this me
[Bridge 1]
C E
But the hose wasn’t on
Am F
There’s no sun in the sky
G
And I’m like why?
[Chorus]
F
Why do your trees blossom
C E
How does your fruit taste sweet
C
How does your grass
E Am
Burst right through the snow oh oh
F
Tell me how does your garden
C
How does your garden grow?
