The Garden

[VERSE]

        D
And the fishermen came back across the water
         D
And the people started running in the park
         G                                A
And the city stopped, as I held you in my arms
         D                              A
We could hear the sound of sirens all around us
        D                               A
And the scent of burning oil was in 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#           Asus4  A
We can play a part if we only start believing


[VERSE 2]

          D               G               A
There's a stranger on the hill and he is speaking
         D              G               A
As the tear from every cloud begin to fall
          G             D/F#           A
For one moment then, we understood 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             D           A/C#
We all fall, in the end we're just 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
    D/F#     G              Asus4  A
So open your mind and start living
       G                 D/F#           Asus4  A
We can play a part if we only start believing


[CHORUS]

D/F#        G               Asus4  A
This is the life we've been given
    D/F#     G               Asus4  A
So open your heart and start loving
       G                 D/F#           Asus4  A
We can make a start if we only learn to listen


[VERSE 3]

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


[CHORUS]

D/F#        G               Asus4  A
This is the life we've been given
    D/F#     G               Asus4  A
So open your heart and start loving
       G                 D/F#           Asus4  A
We can make a start if we only learn to listen


[ENDING]

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