[Verse 1]
D             A/D           Bm Bm7
 I sense a runner in the garden
G5                                    A5
  Although my judgements known to fail
D                  A/D       Bm    Bm7
 Once built a steamboat in a meadow
G5                               A5
  Cause I'd forgotten how to sail

[Chorus]
G5           A5                    D
  I know the runner's going to tell you
G5               A5               D
  There ain't no cowboy in my hair
G5            A5           D
  So now he's buried by the daisies
G5                               A5
  So I could stay the tallest man  in your eyes,
babe

[Verse 2]
D             A/D              Bm Bm7
 I sense a spy   up in the chimney
G5                                 A5
  From all the evidence I've burned
D                  A/D          Bm       Bm7
 I guess he'll read   it in the smoke now
G5                             A5
  And soon to ashes I'll return

[Chorus]
G5           A5                  D
  I know the spy is going to tell you
G5            A5                 D
  It's not my flag up in the pole
G5            A5           D
  So now he's buried by the lilies
G5                            A5
  So I could stay forever more  in your eyes,
babe

[Verse 3]
D              A/D         Bm         Bm7
 I sense a leak   inside my  phone now
G5                             A5
  From all the lies I have told
D             A/D                Bm Bm7
 I know he has   your private number
G5                                     A5
  And soon he'll make that vicious call

[Chorus]
G5           A5                   D
  I know the leak is going to tell you
G5                A5                 D
  There ain't now puppy on your leash
G5             A5           D
  So now he'll fertilize the roses
G5                                A5
  So I could stay the king you see
                  D
In your eyes, babe

[Interlude]
G5                  D
  In your eyes, babe

[Verse 4]
D                A/D                 Bm Bm7
 So now we're dancing through the garden
G5                             A5
  And what a garden I have made
D                  A/D            Bm       Bm7
 And now that death   will grow my  jasmine
G5                            A5
  I find it soothing I'm araid

[Chorus]
G5               A5            D
  Now there is no  need for suspicion
G5               A5                    D
  There ain't no frog kissing your hand
G5           A5          D
  I won't be lying when I tell you
G5
  That I'm a Gardener
         A5
I'm a man
                  D
In your eyes, babe

[Outro]
Bm   G5             D
  In your eyes, babe
Bm   G5             D
  In your eyes, babe
G5 D G5                  Bm
       In your eyes, babe
