Tom Russell - The gardens

When the sun goes down and the heat stays on ^C The young men fight and carry on ^Em It's just a way of life down here in The ^DGardens

^GThis side's mine and that side's yours ^C You can't walk here and break the rules ^Em The rules we all ^Dknow down here in The ^GGardens

I guess it's ^Cone more night that we have to spend With the ^Emwindows barred and the kids locked in ^GOne more night to make your life slowly ^Dharden I guess it's ^Cone more night that we have to spend Where ^Emmommas cry and daddies say "One more night down ^Dhere in The ^GGardens"

When the boys drive through and the bullets fly ^{C C}The baby plays and waits to die The ^Emdaddy breaks down and cries in The ^DGardens

He can't ^Ghave her back and he knows too well 'Cause ^Che's just dying on the hill In this ^Emquiet little ^Dtown called The ^GGardens

I guess it's ^Cone more night that we have to spend With the ^Emwindows barred and the kids locked in ^GOne more night to make your life slowly^D harden I guess it's ^Cone more night that we have to spend Where ^Emmommas cry and daddies say "One more night down ^Dhere in The ^GGardens"

I guess it's ^Cone more night that we have to spend With the ^Emwindows barred and the kids locked in ^GOne more night down^D here in The^G Gardens In this ^Emquiet little ^Dtown we call The ^GGardens ^{C G}
