[Verse]
               Em7                 
The fields are always wet with rain
G                C      Em7        F                G
■ After a summer shower ■   when I saw you standin' ■
            C          Em7
Standin' in the garden ■  
       F      G          C   
In the garden ■ wet with rain
F C G C
■ ■ ■ ■
    Em        Em7                         G     
You wiped the teardrops from your eyes in sorrow
C         Em7                     F           G     
■ Yeah we watched the petals fall down to the ground
C          Em                 F                           G  
■ Yet when I sat beside you I felt the great sadness that day
       C     
In the garden
F Gsus4 C G C
■ ■     ■ ■ ■
             Em7               Fmaj7
And then one day you came back home 
           G               C      
You were a creature all in rapture
Em7                F         G             C   
You had the key to your soul ■ and you did open
Em7 C    F                 G        C     
■   That day you came back ■ to the garden
Gsus4 C G C
■     ■ ■ ■


[Chorus]
                 Em7                F                 G C      
The olden summer breeze was blowin' against your face ■ alright
             Em7                     F           Gsus4 
The light of God was shinin' on your countenance divine
    C     Em7                             F           Gsus4                       
And ■ you were a violet colour as you sat beside your ■     father and your mother
C        Gsus4 
■ In the garden
C G Cmaj7 Em7 F Fmaj7
■ ■ ■     ■   ■ ■    


[Verse]
           Gsus4      G               C   
The summer breeze was blowin' on your face
Em7                F                         Fmaj7 Em7
Within your violet you treasure your summery words ■  
C            Em7                 F               
■ And as the shiver from my neck down to my spine
G7            C            Gsus4         C      G
Ignited me in daylight and nature in the garden ■
Cmaj7         Em7                Fmaj7      G                          C   
■     And you went into a trance ■     your childlike vision became so fine
G      F         Gsus4            G      C          Em     
And we heard the bells within the church ■ we loved so much
             F               G                C                    
And felt the presence of the youth of eternal summers in the garden
        Gsus4 G C G                      F                 G
Alright ■     ■ ■ And as it touched your cheeks so lightly ■
           C                    G
Born again you were and blushed ■
                    G            
And we touched each other lightly
C             Em                                F          G
■ And we felt the presence of the Christ within our hearts ■
C             F Gsus4
In the garden ■ ■    
C G                         C   
■ And I turned to you and I said
Em      F    G      C    Em7    
No guru ■ no method ■ no teacher
               F         
Just you and I and nature
Gsus4     G   C                   
■     And the Father in the garden
G C              G           Gsus4           
■ Listen no guru ■ no method ■     no teacher
                   C      G
Just you and I and nature ■
F              G               C              Cmaj7
And the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost ■    
Gsus4         G7     C        
In the garden ■  wet with rain
Gsus4 C G C
■     ■ ■ ■


[Chorus]
   Em7            F    G      
No guru no method ■ no teacher

Just you and I and nature
    F                  G                C    
And the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost
        Em7    Gsus4        G               C   
In thar garden ■     in the garden wet with rain
Gsus4 C G C Em7 F G C
■     ■ ■ ■ ■   ■ ■ ■
