Intro: Fm7 -  Ab       


Ab             Ab              Fm     B
I sense a runner in the garden
Db                                            Eb7   Eb6
Although my judgment's known to fail
Ab            Ab        Fm    B  
Once built a steamboat in a meadow
Db                                  Eb7   Eb6
Cause I'd forgotten how to sail


Db                 Eb7             Ab            
I know the runner's going to tell you
Db                     Eb7                    Ab         
There ain't no cowboy in my hair
Db                 Eb7                   Ab            
So now he's buried by the daisies
Db                                   Eb7                
So I could stay the tallest man in your eyes, babe


-same pattern for the next Verses-

I sense a spy up in the chimney
From all the evidence I've burned
I guess he'll read it in the smoke now
And soon to ashes I'll return

I know the spy is going to tell you
It's not my flag up in the pole
So now he's buried by the lilies
So I could stay forever more in your eyes, babe

I sense a leak inside my phone now
From all the lies I have told
I know he has your private number
And soon he'll make that vicious call

I know the leak is going to tell you
There ain't now puppy in your leash
So now he'll fertilize the roses
So I could stay the king you see
In your eyes, babe - x2 -

Interlude:  D - muted, 4 bars - D - 4 bars -

D          Ab                   Fm   
So now we're dancing through the garden
Db               Eb7         Eb6
And what a garden I have made
D          Ab   mute          Fm
And now that death will grow my jasmine
Db         Eb7   Eb6
I find it soothing I'm afraid


Db      Eb7      Ab       
Now there is no need for suspicion
Db      Eb7      Ab       
There ain't no frog kissing your hand
Db      Eb7      Ab       
I won't be lying when I tell you
Db             Eb7
That I'm a gardner I'm a man
Eb7      Ab       
In your eyes babe - x2 -
Eb7             Fm 
In your eyes babe.

Great Tab.

The only adjustments I make when playing is, first, in the intro, instead of Fm7 – Ab I play
Ab – Cm7 or Eb6

and in instances where B is noted, I find that Db6 sounds closer to correct.

Otherwise tons of fun to play!

Thanks

Rhiann

Strum pattern for this anyone? Cheers
