[Verse 1]
G D What happened here? As the New York sunset disappeared A Bm I found an Empty Garden, among the flagstones there G D Who lived here? He must have been a gardener that cared a lot A who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop Bm Now it all looks strange G A D It's funny how one insect can damage so much grain
[Verse 2]
G D And what's it for, this little Empty Garden by the brownstone door A and in the cracks along the sidewalk Bm nothing grows no more G D Who lived here? He must have been gardener that cared a lot A who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop Bm and we are so amazed G we're crippled and we're dazed A D A gardener like that one, no one 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 D some say he farmed his best in younger years A but he'd have said that roots grow stronger Bm If only he could hear G D Who lived there? He must have been a gardener that cared a lot A who weeded out the tears and grew 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 D can't you come out, can't you come out to play
[Outro]
Em G A D Johnny, can't you come out to play in your Empty Garden
