But half an year as the New York [E] sunset disappeared
I found an [B] empty garden among the [C#m] flagstones there
Who [A] lived here?
He must have been a [E] gardener that cared a lot
Who weeded out the [B] tears and grew a good crop
Now it [C#m] all looks strange
It's funny [Bm] how one insect [A] can [B] damage so [E] much grain
[A] And what's it for?
This little empty [E] garden by the brownstone door
And in the [B] cracks along the side wall, nothing [C#m] grows no more
[A] Who lived here?
He must have been a [E] gardener that cared a lot
Who weeded out the [B] tears and grew a good crop
And we are [C#m] so amazed, we're crippled [A] and we're dazed
A [B] gardener like that one, no one [E] can replace
And [A] I've been talking, but [E] no one answers
And [A] I've been talking most [C#m] of the day
I've [F#m] been calling, oh [C#m] hey Johnny, did [A] you come [B] out [E] to play?
[A] And through their tears, some say he [E] farmed his best in younger years
But he'd have said [B] that roots grow stronger if only [C#m] he could hear
[A] Who lived there?
He must have been a [E] gardener that cared a lot
Who weeded out the [B] tears and grew a good crop
Now it's [C#m] rain from rain, and with every drop [A] that falls
[B] We hear you, we hear [E] your name
And [A] I've been talking, but [E] no one answers
[A] Most [C#m] of the day
I've [F#m] been calling, oh [C#m] hey Johnny, did you [A] come [B] out [E] to play?
And [A] I've been talking, but [E] no one answers
And [A] I've been talking most [C#m] of the day
I've [F#m] been calling, oh hey [C#m] Johnny, did you [A] come out [B] [E] to play?
[F#m] Johnny, [A] did you come out to [B] play in your [E] empty garden?
[F#m] Johnny, [A] did you come out [B] to play in your [E] empty garden?
[F#m] Johnny, [A] did you come out to [B] play in your [E] empty garden?
[F#m] Johnny, [A] did you come out [B] to play in [E] [F#m] your empty [A] [B] garden?
