Verse 1:

You really only need to be playing the D, G, B and e strings in the verses.

  D   G    D   G
My candy shop's a factory
   D    A    D
left in the woods to die
 D         Bm
Beneath this settled dust
     D    A    D
a fertile field of treasure lies.
    Bm       G
We the scavengers are hunting
    Bm    G
for the beautiful decay,

[The little bass line at "we the scavengers...", ignore the G over "hunting" if using
this and just keep the Bm chord shape]

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

Verse 2:

D    G      D     G
Weeping clowns with cracklin' brows
   D   A  D
piled in the old arcade.
    D        Bm
Now the children are all workers,
   D    A   D
still dreaming about play.
     Bm            G
While the freaks stomp through the wasteland
    Bm        G
pulling flowers from the graves.

Chorus:

      D       G
towards the bottom of the barrel,
    D       A
at the market for the fleas,
   G        Bm
stale boxcars on their railroads
  G  A   Em
won over by the weeds.
     D        G
Raid the scrapyard like a garden,
   D        A
wring life from rusty bones.
  G        Bm
My candy shop is a vacant lot
   G  A    D
where anything may grow.

Verse 3:

    D      G
Like a vessel underwater,
  D        A
old mills and broken glass.
    G       Bm
Like a pick-up in the backyard,
   G    A      Em
tree winding through the cab.

   Bm        G
This takes me down the backroads,
     Bm       G
from the mansion to the shack.

Chorus:

     D       G
From the bottom of the barrel,
    D         A
here's something someone saved,
    G        Bm
and we bring it to the table,
    G     A   Em
wonder what we're gonna make.
   D       G
Your scrapyard, my garden,
  D       A
or so the saying goes.
     G     Bm
You turn water into dead things
     G    A      D
and I'll make the dead things grow
G    A      D
Make the dead things grow
G    A      Em
Make the dead things grow
