| The Garden Song G C G C D G Inch by inch row by row, going to make this garden grow C D G G/F# Em C D All it takes is a rake and a hoe and a piece of fertile ground G C G C D G Inch by inch row by row, someone bless these seeds I sow C D G G/F# Em C D G Someone warm them from the low 'til the rain comes tumbling down Hauling weeds and picking stones, man is made of dreams and bones Feel the need to grow my own cause the time is close at hand Grain for grain sun and rain, find my way in natures chain Tune my body and my brain to the music from the land Inch by inch row by row, going to make this garden grow All it takes is a rake and a hoe and a piece of fertile ground Inch by inch row by row someone bless these seeds I sow Someone warm them from the low 'til the rain comes tumbling down Plant a row straight and long and temper them with prayer and song Mother Earth will make you strong if you give her love and care An old coo watching hungrily, from his perch in yonder tree In my garden I'm as free as that feathered theif of the lair Inch by inch row by row, going to make this garden grow All it takes is a rake and a hoe and a piece of fertile ground Inch by inch row by row, someone bless these seeds I sow Somone warn them from the low 'til the rain comes tumbling down |
