Verse 1:
D                  D2/C
Here in the garden Let's play a game
G6/B                    Gm6/Bb
I'll show you how it's done
D                  D2/C
Here in the garden Stand very still
G6/B                Gm6/Bb
This'll be so much fun

Pre-Chorus:
Bm                  F#7
And then she smiled That's what I'm after
   D
A smile in her eyes
     Am
The sound of her laughter

Chorus:
D                D2/C
Happy to listen Happy to play
G6/B                Gm6/Bb A    D
Happily watching her driiiiift away

Verse 2:
D                  D2/C
Happily waitingAll on my own
G6/B             Gm6/Bb
Under the endless sky
D                     D2/C
Counting the seconds Standing alone
G6/B               Gm6/Bb
As thousands of years go by

Pre-Chorus:
Bm                 F#7
Happily wondering  Night after night
D
Is this how it works?
E
Am I doing it right?

Chorus:
D                D2/C
Happy to listen Happy to stay
G6/B                Gm6/Bb A    D
Happily watching her driiiiift away

Bridge:
C                   G          D
You keep on turning pages for people who don't care
Am                      G       Em
People who don't care about you
C                        G      D
And still, it takes you ages to see that no one's there
Am
See that no one's there
G
See that no one's there
Em                     C       G
Everyone's gone on without you

Verse 3:
D                  D2/C
Finally something  Finally news
G6/B               Gm6/Bb
About how the story ends
D                          D2/C
She doesn't exist now  Survived by her son
G6/B                     Gm6/Bb
And all of her brand new friends

Pre-Chorus:
Bm                   F#7
Isn't that lovely?  Isn't that cool?
D
And isn't that cruel
E
And aren't I a fool to have

Chorus:
D                D2/C
Happy to listen Happy to stay
G6/B                 Gm6/Bb A
Happily watching her driiiiift

Ending:
Gm6/Bb A
Driiiiift
Gm6/Bb    A    D
Driiiiiiiift away
