Empty Garden

                  G                
What happened here? As the New York
                    D
 sunset disappeared
                  A                
I found an Empty Garden, among the 
            Bm
flagstones there
     G                             
Who lived here?  He must have been 
                 D
a gardener that cared a lot
who weeded out the tears and grew a 
 A
good crop
                  Bm
Now it all looks strange
                    G          A  
It's funny how one insect can 
            D
damage so much grain

[Verse 2]
    G                              
And what's it for, this little 
                D
Empty Garden by the brownstone door
                             A
and in the cracks along the sidewalk
                 Bm
nothing grows no more
     G                             
Who lived here?  He must have been 
               D
gardener that cared a lot
who weeded out the tears and grew a 
 A
good crop
               Bm
and we are so amazed
                         G
we're crippled and we're dazed
                     A             
A gardener like that one, no one 
  D
can replace

[Chorus]
              G
And I've been knockin'
            D
but no one answers

              G
And I've been knockin'
             Bm
most all the day
                  Em
Oh, and I've been callin'
             Bm
oh, hey, hey Johnny
               G A       D
can't you come out to play?
D

[Verse 3]
     G
And through their tears
some say he farmed his best in 
 D
younger years
but he'd have said that roots grow 
 A
stronger
                 Bm
If only he could hear
    G                              
Who lived there?  He must have been
                D
 a gardener that cared a lot
who weeded out the tears and grew 
A
good crop
                 Bm
Now we pray for rain
                         G
And with every drop that pours
   A                     D
we hear, we hear your name

[Chorus]
               G
And I've been knockin'
           D
but no one answers
              G
And I've been knockin'
               Bm
most all the day
                  Em
oh, and I've been calling
             Bm
oh, hey, hey Johnny
                G     A      D
can't you come out,       to play

[Chorus]
               G
And I've been knockin'
           D
but no one answers
              G
And I've been knockin'
               Bm
most all the day
                  Em
oh, and I've been calling
             Bm
oh, hey, hey Johnny
                G     A           
can't you come out, can't you come
         D
 out to play

[Otro]
   Em    G                     A 
Johnny, can't you come out to 
                 D
play in your Empty Garden
(repeat)
