Garden Song

                D                 G         D      G       A             D
Chorus:    Inch by inch, row by row, gonna make this garden grow
                G         A           D               Bm           E                     A
                All you need is a rake and a how and a piece of fertile ground
                D                  G        D      G            A              D
                Inch by inch, row by row, someone bless these seed I sow
                G              A              D        Bm           E               A           D
                Someone warm them from below til the rains come tumbling down

Verse 1:   Pulling weeds, picking stones, we are made of dreams and bones
                Need a place to call my own for the time is near at hand
                Grain for grain, sun and rain, find my way thru nature's chain
                Tune my body and my brain to the music of the land

 Chorus:

Verse 2:   Plant your rows straight and long, temper them with prayer and song
                Mother earth will make you strong if you give her love and care
                As old crow watching hungrily from his perch in yonder tree
                In my garden I'm as free as that feathered thief up there!

 Chorus:                (Repeat Chorus as needed)
