[Verse 1]
[G]Onc[A]e upon a time t[Asus4]here[D][Asus4][A]
[G]was a garden [A]on [Asus4]a high hi[G]ll[A][G]
[A]Green and blossomin' round
against [Em]the sea[G][Asus4]
[A]And there the sun came and
the rain pourin' down
Garden grew and flourished and splattered
bits of color on the ground
And it took shape and symmetry
and all of life [Asus4]around[A]
But there came winds
driven and howling
There came snow and I
feared for the garden
So I built [Asus4]a wall an[A]d I built another and roofed
[Asus4]it over t[A]hick and [Asus4]strong
[A]And kept it from the slings and arrows
of outrageous fortune
The killing cold could not get in
But [Asus4]when the sun [A]came and
the gentle rain of spring
[Asus4]They could [A]not reach the [Asus4]garden
[A]behind those walls
It would have died, safely, securely, died
[Asus4]But as I [A]longed and as I learned I tore
the walls all [Asus4]down[A][Asus4][A]
[Asus4]The garden [D]still lives[A]
