Empty Garden

      A/E
What happened here
                        E
As the New York sunset disappeared
                  B7
I found an empty garden
                      C#m
Among the flagstones there
     A/E
Who lived here
                                    E
He must have been a gardener that cared a lot
                                    B7
Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop
                       C#m
And now it all looks strange
                    B/A  A
It's funny how one in..sect
    B7               E
Can damage, so much grain
    A/E
And what's it for
                                E
This little empty garden by the brownstone door
                                B7
And in the cracks along the sidewalk
                 C#m
Nothing grows no more
     A/E
Who lived here
                                  E
He must have been a gardener that cared a lot
                                    B7
Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop
                C#m
And we are so amazed
                         B/A  A
We're crippled and we're dazed
                 B7
A gardener like that one
              E
No one can replace
    E/G#       A
And I've been knocking
            E
But no one answers
    E/G#       A
And I've been knocking
             C#m  G#m  C#m
Most all the day

                 F#m
Oh and I've been calling
           C#m
Oh hey hey Johnny
                A  B     E
Can't you come o...ut to play
     A/E
And through their tears
                               E
Some say he farmed his best in younger years
                                    B7
But he'd have said that roots grow stronger
                 C#m
If only he could hear
     A/E
Who lived there
                                  E
He must have been a gardener that cared a lot
                                    B7
Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop
               C#m
Now we pray for rain
                          B/A  A
And with every drop that falls
   B                    E
We hear,  we hear your name
    E/G#       A
And I've been knocking
            E
But no one answers
    E/G#       A
And I've been knocking
             C#m  G#m  C#m
Most all the day

                 F#m
Oh and I've been calling
           C#m
Oh hey hey Johnny
                A
Can't you come out
B                      E
Can't you come out to play
F#m
Johnny
A                      B
Can't you come out to play
              E
In your empty garden
F#m
Garden
A                      B
Can't you come out to play
              E
In your empty garden
