Van Morrison – In The Garden (Guitar)

C                Em                 Fmaj7   G
The fields are always wet with rain

                     C   Em
After a summer shower 

       Fmaj7            G
when I saw you standin'

                C         Em
Standin' in the garden, 

       Fmaj7  G              C  F  C  G
in the garden wet with rain

C                Em                      Fmaj7       G
   You wiped the teardrops from your eye in sorrow

C                   Em           Fmaj7               G
   As we watched the petals fall down to the ground

C           Em               Fmaj7                       G
   And as I sat beside you I felt the great sadness that day 

       C      F  C  G
In the garden

C              Em                Fmaj7            G                  C     Em
  And then one day you came back home, you were a creature all in rapture

            Fmaj7            G
You had the key to your soul

            C     Em       Fmaj7        G
And you did open,     that day you came back, 

       C      F  C  G
to the garden

C           Em                       Fmaj7               G
  The olden summer breeze was blowin' against your face

C              Em                      Fmaj7         G
  The light of old was shinin' on your countenance divine

C     Em                       Fmaj7                  G
  And you were a violet colour as you sat beside your father and your mother 

       C      F  C  G  |  C  Em  Fmaj7
In the garden

           G                          C
The summer breeze was blowin' on your face

Em                       Fmaj7                 G
  Within your violet you treasure your summery words

C           Em                       Fmaj7          G
  And as the shiver from my neck down to my spine ignited me 

      C         F             C      G
In daylight and nature in the garden

C         Em              Fmaj7    G                          C      Em
  And you went into a trance. Your childlike vision became so fine

       Fmaj7                      G
And we heard the bells within the church 

C             Em                Fmaj7                   G               C
  we loved so much and felt the presence of the youth of eternal summers 

       F       C  G
In the garden

C     Em                       Fmaj7       G
  And as it touched your cheeks so lightly, born again

         C                 Em                  Fmaj7    G
you were and blushed and we touched each other lightly

C                 Em                    Fmaj7      G 
  And we felt the presence of the Christ within our hearts

       C      F  C  G
In the garden.        And I turned to you and I said

C    Em       Fmaj7        G
  No Guru,      no method, 

C            Em                  Fmaj7   G
  no teacher. Just you and I and nature, and the father, 

       C      F  C  G
In the garden

C          Em           Fmaj7        G                   C
  No Guru,  no method,   no teacher.  Just you and I and nature

Em         Fmaj7          G           C           Em
   And the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost,  

       Fmaj7    G
in the garden 

         C      F  C  G
wet with rain

C          Em           Fmaj7        G                   C
  No Guru,  no method,   no teacher.  Just you and I and nature

Em         Fmaj7          G           C           Em
   And the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost,  

       Fmaj7          G
in the garden, in the garden 

         C      F  C  G
wet with rain

C    Em       Fmaj7        G
  No Guru,      no method, 

C            Em                  Fmaj7   G
  no teacher. Just you and I and nature, and the father, 

       C      F  C  G
In the garden
