My candy shop's a factory
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
left in the woods to die
D MajorD B minorBm
Beneath this settled dust
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
a fertile field of treasure lies.
B minorBm G+G
We the scavengers are hunting
B minorBm G+G
for the beautiful decay,
[The little bass line at "we the scavengers...", ignore the G+G over "hunting" if using
this and just keep the B minorBm chord shape]

Chorus:
D MajorD G+G
towards the bottom of the barrel,
D MajorD A augmentedA
at the market for the fleas,
G+G B minorBm
stale boxcars on their railroads
G+G A augmentedA E minorEm
won over by the weeds.
D MajorD G+G
Raid the scrapyard like a garden,
D MajorD A augmentedA
wring life from rusty bones.
G+G B minorBm
My candy shop is a vacant lot
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
where anything may grow.

Weeping clowns with cracklin' brows
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
piled in the old arcade.

Now the children are all workers,
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
still dreaming about play.

While the freaks stomp through the wasteland
B minorBm G+G
pulling flowers from the graves.

From the bottom of the barrel,
D MajorD A augmentedA
here's something someone saved,

and we bring it to the table,

wonder what we're gonna make.

Your scrapyard, my garden,

and I'll make the dead things grow

Make the dead things grow
G+G A augmentedA E minorEm
Make the dead things grow
