The Garden

D G A    D G A   G A


[VERSE]
        D
And the fishermen came back across 
the water
         D
And the people started running in 
the park
         G                         
And the city stopped, as I held you
       A
 in my arms
         D                       
We could hear the sound of sirens 
       A
all around us
        D                          
And the scent of burning oil was in
     A
 the air
        G
And the music played
       D/F#            Asus4   A
And it felt so good to hear


[CHORUS]
D/F#        G               Asus4  A
This is the life we've been given
    D/F#     G              Asus4  A
So open your mind and start living
       G                 D/F#     
We can play a part if we only 
      Asus4  A
start believing


[VERSE 2]
          D               G       
There's a stranger on the hill and
        A
 he is speaking
Continues after the ad
         D              G         
As the tear from every cloud begin
      A
 to fall
          G             D/F#      
For one moment then, we understood
     A
 it all


[BRIDGE]
     G         A            Bm
Everyone, everyone, can you hear the
 soldiers coming
     G         A          Bm
Everyone, everyone, every man and 
every woman
        G            A             
We all fall, in the end we're just 
D           A/C#
miracles of matter
      G            A
So come on, let me love you


[CHORUS]
D/F#        G               Asus4  A
This is the life we've been given

       G                 D/F#     
We can play a part if we only 
      Asus4  A
start believing

    D/F#     G               
So open your heart and start 
Asus4  A

       G                 D/F#     
We can make a start if we only 
      Asus4  A
learn to listen


[VERSE 3]
          D              G        
Then the crowd began to head for 
     A
the horizon
   D             G             
A million people walking back to 
   A
work
     G                  D/F#      
But you and me, we just lay down 
       Asus4   A
in the garden
     G                    D/F#    
Yeah you and me, we just lay down 
        Asus4   A
in the garden


[CHORUS]
D/F#        G               Asus4  A
This is the life we've been given
    D/F#     G

[ENDING]
G                   D/F#         
You and me, we just lay down in 
   Asus4    A
the garden
          D
Yeah, the garden
