D MajorD A augmentedA (x2)


Verse 1:

       D MajorD                 A augmentedA
From my good neighbor living south of the borderline
     D MajorD              A augmentedA E MajorE
I get my share of avocado
Interstate 65
     D MajorD              A augmentedA
I married one to a tomato from my backyard
    D MajorD                 A augmentedA  E MajorE    B minorBm
And ceremonial garlic salt rained from the everlasting arms
      D MajorD                  A augmentedA
Of my good neighbors down the line at the Carey Farm
       D MajorD                   A augmentedA
Where one day soon a child of one will be a child of all
     E MajorE        B minorBm       D MajorD         A augmentedA
I'm still broken about the mother I had in mind, she flew the fields
          D MajorD
But crop circles aside

My Queen of the Cob
       A augmentedA   E MajorE   B minorBm
I loved you then and always will

Chorus:

     A augmentedA
I've got everything I need:
       E MajorE
The chocolate earth and a bag of seeds
    B minorBm        D MajorD        A augmentedA
And the leakage from the good lord's waterbed
     A augmentedA              E MajorE
Should my vegetables go rotten from a garden gone forgotten
    B minorBm       D MajorD       C#7C#7  C#C#
I will lean upon the kindness of my friends
     D MajorD           E MajorE         A augmentedA
And wash, along with the dinner plates, my helping hands

D MajorD A augmentedA (x2)

Verse 2:

           D MajorD                A augmentedA
She was the hurricane dancing in the dark of my kodachrome
             D MajorD                   A augmentedA
He took the hammer to the nail, sparked the flash, and drove her home
      E MajorE        D MajorD
He was the moon that nearly pulled the blue right off the earth
A augmentedA
Around the time the shake and the burst
  D MajorD
Of embryonic forest neighbors
A augmentedA
Offered a choir of crotchety angels
B minorBm         D MajorD
Ripping through the house we built
  A augmentedA          E MajorE
We made our love in a crochet quilt
  B minorBm            D MajorD
And there in the last of the dawns we cradled
  A augmentedA     E MajorE     B minorBm
Was all I ever wanted for you: the moon


Chorus:

     A augmentedA
I've got everything I need:
       E MajorE
The chocolate earth and a bag of seeds
     B minorBm       D MajorD        A augmentedA
And the leakage from the good lord's waterbed
     A augmentedA              D MajorD
Should my vegetables go rotten from a garden gone forgotten
    B minorBm      D MajorD        C#7C#7  C#C#
I will lean upon the kindness of my friends
     D MajorD           E MajorE         A augmentedA
And wash, along with the dinner plates, my helping hands

     D MajorD           E MajorE         A augmentedA
And wash, along with the dinner plates, my helping hands
