D D/C# Bm Bm7 I sense a runner in the garden G A7 A6 Although my judgment's known to fail D D/C# Bm Bm7 Once built a steamboat in a meadow G A7 A6 Cause I'd forgotten how to sail G A7 D I know the runner's going to tell you G A7 D There ain't no cowboy in my hair G A7 D So now he's buried by the daisies G A7 So I could stay the tallest man in your eyes, babe
D D/C# Bm Bm7 I sense a spy up in the chimney G A7 A6 From all the evidence I've burned D D/C# Bm Bm7 I guess he'll read it in the smoke now G A7 A6 And soon to ashes I'll return G A7 D I know the spy is going to tell you G A7 D It's not my flag up in the pole G A7 D So now he's buried by the lilies G A7 So I could stay forever more in your eyes, babe
D D/C# Bm Bm7 I sense a leak inside my phone now G A7 A6 From all the lies I have told D D/C# Bm Bm7 I know he has your private number G A7 A6 And soon he'll make that vicious call G A7 D I know the leak is going to tell you G A7 D There ain't no puppy in your leash G A7 D So now he'll fertilize the roses G A7 So I could stay the king you see in your eyes, babe G A7 So I could stay the king you see in your eyes, babe
D D/C# Bm So now we're dancing through the garden G A7 A6 And what a garden I have made D D/C# Bm And now that death will grow my jasmine G A7 A6 I find it soothing I'm afraid G A7 D Now there is no need for suspicion G A7 D There ain't no frog kissing your hand G A7 D I won't be lying when I tell you G A7 That I'm a gardener, I'm a man A7 D In your eyes babe A7 D In your eyes babe A7 Bm In your eyes babe.
