[Intro 1]
[G][D][Dsus4][C][G][D][Dsus4][G][Dsus4][C][G][D]
[Dsus4][G]

[Verse 1]
On the fourth [D]floor of the [Em]building[C]
[G]With the shal[D]low window [C]box
She's [G]digging [D]in the soil
with a sil[Em]ver spoon
[C]Her han[G]ds inside rub[Em]ber glo[D]ves

[Verse 2]
[G]Planting seed[D]s, [Em]pulling up weed[C]s
The [G]cycle [D]of life is com[C]plete
[G]Who would have thought [D]it,
in a [Em]city [C]of stone
[G]Four floors [D]above [G]the street[D]
[Dsus4][C][G][D]

[Verse 3]
[Dsus4]
[G]I cannot tell wha[D]t kind of
[Em]flowers they [C]are
I'm [G]too far be[D]low on the [C]street
But the [G]color they ad[D]d to the
[Em]building so [C]drab
Brings a [G]warm splash of
[Em]welcome re[D]lief

[Verse 4]
Yeah, it's [G]something worth[D]while
For the [Em]sun to shine o[C]n
A [G]reason to [D]radiate [C]heat
Well that [G]small window [D]box,
It was a [Em]skipping [C]my feet
[G]Four floors [D]be low [G]on the street
[D][C][G][D][G]

[Verse 5]
For every [D]good seed she [Em]plants in the soil
[C]There's a doz[G]en bad wai[D]ting to gro[C]w
To [G]strangle the [D]goodness
she's [Em]trying to [C]nurture
To [G]kill all the seed [Em]that she's [D]sown

[Verse 6]
[G]Every [D]time you [Em]water [C]the garden
[G]You also [D]water the weed[C]s
A [G]foul adminis[D]tration of
[Em]sin and [C]temptation
[G]Four floors [D]above the street

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 7]
Some people [D]don't under
[Em]stand why she [C]does it
[G]Some people [D]look for a [C]reason
[G]Maybe she just [D]likes the [Em]feel [C]of the soil
Or [G]keeping in tun[Em]e
with the sea[D]sons

[Verse 8]
[G]Maybe she [D]has so much [Em]pride in her[C]self
Got to [G]keep it all [D]visually [C]pleasing
A [G]small para[D]dise in a [Em]world of concrete
[C]Fou[G]r floors abo[D]ve the street

[Verse 9]
[G]A s[D]mal[Em]l pa[C]ra[G]
[D]dise in a [Em]world of concrete
[C]A sma[G]ll par[D]adise in a wor[Em]ld of concre[C]te
A [G]small para[D]dise in a [Em]world of con[C]crete
[G]Four [D]floors above the
[G]street[D]
[C][G][D][Dsus4]
