[Em] [A]
Once upon a time, there [Em] was a garden on a [A] high [Em] hill, green and blue up and round against
the sea.
[A] And there the sun came
[Em] and the rain [A] poured down.
The garden grew and flourished
and splattered bits of color on the ground.
And it took shape and symmetry and all of
life abound.
But there came winds, driven in hand, there came snow, and I feared for
the garden.
So I built a wall, and I built another, and roofed it over thick and strong.
And kept it from the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune.
The killing cold could
not get in.
But when the sun came, and the gentle rain of spring, they could not reach
the garden behind those walls.
It would have died safely, securely, died.
But as [D]
I [A] walked,
and as I learned, I tore the walls all down.
The garden still lives.
The [D]
[A] [G] [A]
garden [D] lives.
[F#m] [A]
