[Intro]
Gm Dm Gm Dm
[Verse 1]
GmI hired a coach to take me from conDmfusion to the plane
And though we sCmhared a common space I know I'll nevGer meet again
The dGmriver with his eyebrows furrowed iDmn the rear-view mirror
I rCmead his name and it was plainly written NGathan La Franeer
I aGmsked him would he hurry
But we crDawled the canyons slowly
Through the bDmuyers and the sellers
Through the buCrglar bells and the wishing weGlls C
With gGmangs and girly shBbows D7
The ghostly gGmarden grows
[Verse 2]
The cGmars and buses bustled thru the bedDmlam of the day
I looked through wCmindow-glass at streets and Nathan gruGmbled at the grey
I sGmaw an aging cripple selling SupDmerman balloons
The city gCmrated through chrome-plate
The clock struck slGowly half-past-noon
Through the tGmunnel tiled and turning
Into dDaylight once again I am escapiDmng
Once again goodbye
To symphConies and dirty treGesC
With pGmarks and plastic cloBbtheD7s
The ghostly gGmarden grows
[Verse 3]
He asGmked me for a dollar more
He cuDmrsed me to my face
He hated everCmyone who paid to ride
And shaGre his common space
I pGmicked my bags up from the curb
And stDmumbled to the door
Another Cmman reached out his hand
Another hGand reached out for more
And I fGmilled it full of silver
And I leDft the fingers counting
And the sDmky goes on forever
Without meCter maids and peace parGadCes
You feeGmd it all your woBbes D7
The ghostly gGmarden grows
You feGmed it all your wBboesD7
The ghostly gGmarden grows
