Vern Gosdin – The Garden (Guitar)

             C                        F
She  planted  roses ,  the  first  year  we

               C
married -  it  soon  was  a  garden  we'd  go

         G          C
walking  through - My job kept me travling

              F
but  when  I  came  home  to  heaven

        C                        G
She was so proud to show me- all the love

         C      A
that she grew

D                             G
I  heard  her  talking , one  day  to  a  old

                      D
 friend  She said  I  don't  want  to  hurt  him

                      A     D
But  its  out  of  control . I  feel  so  guilty

       G                              D
cause  he'll  be  so  helpless -  He  won't

                    A              D
understand  why  I  just  got  to  go

                      G
Now I come to the garden alone

                       C
All my reasons I once had for living are

G                                      B7              C
gone . Sometimes when I feel like I just

              A   G                     D           G  A
cant go on - I come to the garden alone

 D                                          G
No  one  can  imagine -  just  how  much  I  miss                            

D                                                                A
her I’d  give  up  this  whole  world  to once more

D                                                G
hold  her  near.  It's  just  beyond  on  me  why

D                                         A
God took  her  from  me  I  bet  the  flowers  in

D                                      G
heaven are  looking  better  this  year.
