What happened here as the New York sunset
[E] disappeared?
I found an empty [B]
garden among the flags [C#m] gone fair.
Who [A]
lives here?
Must have been a gardener that [E] cared a lot.
Weeded out the tears and [B] grew a good crop.
Now it all [C#m] looks strange.
Tell me how [E] one [A] can say, [B]
damn it, so [E] much grain.
[A] And was it poor, this little empty garden by the [E] brownstone door?
And in the cracks along the [B] sidewalk, nothing grows [C#m] no more.
Who [A]
[E] lives here?
Must have been a [A] gardener that cared a [E] lot.
Weeded out the tears and [B] grew a good crop.
And we are so [C#m] amazed.
A crib [F#]
with [A] days, a gardener [B] like that one, no one can [E] replace.
They've [A] been knocking, no [E] one answers.
[A] They've been talking most [C#m] of the day
[F#m] and calling,
[C#m] Hey Johnny, can't [A] you come out [B]
[E] to play?
[A] Through the tears, come saying he found his best in [E] younger years.
But he just said [B] the roots grow stronger, if only [C#m] he were here.
Who
[E] lives here?
Must have been a gardener that cared a lot.
Weeded out the tears and [B] grew a good crop.
Now it's rain, [C#m] rain.
And with every [A] drop that falls, [B] we hear, we hear [E] your name.
They've [A] been knocking, no [E] one answers.
They've [A] been talking most of [C#m] the day
[F#m] and calling,
[C#m] Hey Johnny, can't [A] you come [B] out [E] to play?
They've [A] been knocking, no [E] one answers.
They've [A] been knocking most of [C#m] the day [F#m] and calling,
Hey [C#m]
Johnny, can't [A] you come [B] [E] out to play?
[F#m] Johnny, [A]
[B] in your [E] arms,
[F#m] Johnny, [A] can you come out [B] to play?
[E]
[F#m] Johnny, [A] can't you come out [B] [E] to
[F#m] [A]
[B] play?
