The Gardens

G

[Verse]
When the sun goes down and the heat 
          C
stays on
                                  Em
The young men fight and carry on
It's just a way of life down here in
     D
 The Gardens

[Verse]
G                              
This side's mine and that side's 
        C
yours
You can't walk here and break the 
       Em
rules
                 D                 
The rules we all know down here in 
    G
The Gardens

[Chorus]
             C
I guess it's one more night that we 
have to spend
         Em
With the windows barred and the kids
 locked in
G                              
One more night to make your life 
         D
slowly harden
Continues after the ad
             C
I guess it's one more night that we 
have to spend
      Em
Where mommas cry and daddies say
                     D          
"One more night down here in The 
 G
Gardens"

[Verse]
When the boys drive through and the 
             C
bullets fly
C
The baby plays and waits to die
    Em                             
The daddy breaks down and cries in 
    D
The Gardens

[Verse]
         G
He can't have her back and he knows 
too well
       C
'Cause he's just dying on the hill
        Em           D            
In this quiet little town called 
   G
The Gardens

[Chorus]
             C
I guess it's one more night that we 
have to spend
         Em
With the windows barred and the kids
 locked in
G                              
One more night to make your life 
        D
slowly harden
             C
I guess it's one more night that we 
have to spend
      Em
Where mommas cry and daddies say
                     D          
"One more night down here in The 
 G
Gardens"

[Instrumental]
C    Em    G    D  Em

[Chorus]
             C
I guess it's one more night that we 
have to spend
         Em
With the windows barred and the kids
 locked in
G                  D           G
One more night down here in The 
Gardens
        Em           D            
In this quiet little town we call 
    G         C   G
