Chords for The Tallest Man on Earth - The Gardener (Live on KEXP)

_ You're really quiet and polite.
I like that. _ _
It's live radio.
It's your chance. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] I'm gonna do a song about flowers. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ I sense a runner in the garden
_ _ Although my judgment's known to fail
_ _ Once built [E] a steeple [A] in a meadow
_ Curse I've forgotten how [B] to say
_ _ _ I know the runner's going [A] to tell you
_ _ [B] There ain't no cowboy in [A] my hat
_ _ [B] So now he's buried [A] by the daisy
_ _ [B] So I could stay the [Em] tallest man in [A] your eyes, babe.
I [E] sense a smile up [A] in the ceiling
_ _ From all the [B] evidence I've earned
_ _ [A] And I [E] guess I'll read it [A] in the smoke now
_ And soon to ask is [B] I'll return
_ _ Well, I know the spy is [A] going to tell you
_ [B] _
There's not my flag up [A] in the fold, no
_ [B] So now he's buried [A] by the lily
_ [B] So I could stay forever more in your eyes, babe.
[E] I sense a leak [A] inside my coat
_ [E] _
From all the lies that I have told
_ _ And I know he has [A] your private number _ _
And soon he'll make [B] that vicious call
_ _ Well, I know the leak is [A] going to tell you
_ [B] There ain't no puppy [A] in your league
_ _ [B] So now he'll [A] fertilize the roses
_ [B] So I could stay the king you see in your [A] eyes, babe.
_ _ _ In your eyes, babe _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] Well, now we're dancing through the [A] garden
_ _ And what a garden I have made
_ _ And [E] now that death will grow my jasmine
I _ _ find it soothing, I'm [B] afraid
_ _ Now there is no [A] need for suspicion, oh no
[B] There ain't no fraud kissing [A] your hand
_ _ [B] And I won't be [A] lying when I tell you, oh no
That I'm a guard _ [E] _ _ _
[B] in [E] your eyes, [A] babe _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
[A] In your eyes, babe
_ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ [B] _ In [D] your _ eyes, _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ [D#] _ _ [F#m] babe _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D#] _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
