Intro
G//C/G//C//G//C//G/Em//A//D//

[Chorus]

G             C     G
Inch by inch, row by row,
C               G       
Gonna make this garden grow.
C              G    G/F# Em
Gonna mulch it deep and low,
      A               D
Gonna make it fertile ground.
G             C      G
Inch by inch, row by row,
C                  G
Please bless these seeds I sow.
C                G   G/F# Em
Please keep them safe below
         A           D        G
'Til the rain comes tumbling down.

G                 C       G
Pullin' weeds and pickin' stones,
C               G
We are made of dreams and bones
C            G   G/F# Em
Need spot to call my own
          A        D
Cause the time is close at hand.
G                C       G
Grain for grain, sun and rain
C                   G
I'll find my way in nature's chain
C            G  G/F# Em  
Tune my body and my brain
       A      D     G
To the music of the land.

[Chorus]
G                C           G
Plant your rows straight and long,
C                  G
Season them with a prayer and song
C                 G   G/F# Em
Mother earth will keep you strong
       A         D  
If you give her love and care.
G                 C      G
Old crow watching from a tree
C              G
Has his hungry eye on me
C            G  G/F# Em
In my garden I'm as free
        A         D        G
As that feathered thief up there.

[Chorus 2x]
