A    Cdim E7  A    Bm7/5-     A7 
'Twas just a garden in  the rain  
 D   Cdim  C#m7/5-        F#7 
Close to a little leafy lane,  
D Bm7/5- E7  A      F#m  Bm7/5- E7  A    F#m  D  Cdim  E7 
A touch of color 'neath skies of gray. 
  
A   Cdim    E7    A         Bm7/5-   A7  
The rain - drops kissed the flower beds;  
D   Cdim     C#m7/5-               F#7 
The blossoms raised their thirsty heads.  
D Bm7/5-     E7         Bm7/5- Cdim      A 
A perfumed "Thank you" they seemed to say. 
  
Bridge:  
 G#m7           C#m     G#m7     Cdim (IV) G#m7 C#m 
Surely here was charm beyond com - pare   to  view;  
G#m7  Bm7/5-    A       G#m7   C#m   G#7   E7 
Maybe  it was just that I was there with you. 
  
 A    Cdim E7  A   Bm7/5-     A7 
'Twas just a garden  in the rain,  
D   Cdim     C#m7/5-         F#7 
But then the sun came out again  
D   Bm7/5-    E7    Bm7/5- Cdim  A 
And sent us happily  on  our  way.
