GARDEN OF LAVENDER

SUN KIL MOON

DADGAD TUNING
A augmentedA = 777600
E MajorE = 222100
FF = 333200
G+G = 555400

A augmentedA G+G FF E MajorE FF G+G

A augmentedA                     G+G
Was on a flight home from?well, it doesn?t matter
   FF   E MajorE    FF           G+G
With eleven hours, a million thoughts were gathering

A augmentedA                  G+G
My mind kept going to my garden of lavender
 FF     E MajorE       FF       G+G
I wanted to get to them so they wouldn?t die

A augmentedA                 G+G
When I got home, they were dry as wheat
     FF   E MajorE         FF       G+G
While the vines thrived around them B-horror film green

A augmentedA             G+G
Not sure what my lavender symbolize
  FF  E MajorE  FF   G+G
But inside my heart cried

A augmentedA                     G+G
My heart is drawn to the small out-of-the-way things
   FF    E MajorE          FF            G+G
That I can?t help but to give my focus and attention and care

A augmentedA                  G+G
Cause they shut off what hijacks my brain
  FF    E MajorE       FF      G+G
And help to tune out what can cause me pain

A augmentedA                  G+G
And I care for the animals around my yard
    FF    E MajorE       FF      G+G
And my sister?s children and I care for my garden

A augmentedA        G+G
Swarmed upon by bumblebees
  FF    E MajorE           FF              G+G
And yellow jackets and wasps and hornets that can dart out and sting

A augmentedA          G+G
I see the big orange tabby cat
 FF   E MajorE      FF        G+G
Getting warm on the cover of the hot tub

A augmentedA       G+G
He turns over on his back
 FF   E MajorE   FF   G+G
Looking for a belly rub

A augmentedA           G+G
I see the deer tracks in the snow
    FF   E MajorE
On the animal path
   FF         G+G
That leads into my backyard

A augmentedA             G+G
I hear the sound of my girlfriend?s car
 FF      E MajorE        FF          G+G
Coming up the driveway and it fills my heart With joy

A augmentedA               G+G
Though I know it will all end someday
  FF    E MajorE      FF            G+G
And someone else will be sleeping in my mountain house

A augmentedA          G+G
Wondering who lived here before
   FF        E MajorE
Just like I sometimes do
     FF           G+G
Though I never really cared to explore

A augmentedA               G+G
I see the chocolate and peanut butter cat
  FF         E MajorE
I look at him and he looks back
     FF           G+G
I snap my fingers and blow him a kiss

A augmentedA                    G+G
He rubs his head against my hand and we reminisce
    FF          E MajorE
I walk downtown and see the Christmas lights
     FF          G+G
Along the highway and how they shine

A augmentedA             G+G
And I?m reminded of when I was a child
    FF    E MajorE      FF            G+G
And how happy I felt when I opened the box and saw a guitar inside


A augmentedA                  G+G
Was on a flight to somewhere I can?t remember
    FF     E MajorE       FF             G+G
I feel like I?ve lived so many lives, I can?t put it all together

A augmentedA            G+G
Dordrecht, Holland, yeah that was it
    FF         E MajorE          FF            G+G
I had a nice dinner with a concert promoter and his Korean wife, Suyoung Kim

A augmentedA                  G+G
Then dropped me off at an old spooky hotel
    FF    E MajorE      FF             G+G
I felt like an old man in a castle looking over at the canal

A augmentedA                            G+G
And I went and I played for a crowd but my heart wasn?t there
    FF     E MajorE    FF       G+G
I came back to my room and slouched in my bed

A augmentedA                         G+G
And I fell asleep still stewing about my dried up lavender
   FF   E MajorE      FF     G+G
And I fell asleep in the dark dead night


A augmentedA                    G+G
And I dreamed of a bluejay picking up a seed
  FF    E MajorE   FF     G+G
And passing it to another?s beak

A augmentedA            G+G
Then watched him soar to another branch
    FF      E MajorE         FF              G+G
Then a baby possum hissed at me as I crept up on him near a trash can

A augmentedA                       G+G
And I woke up one rainy morning in Dordrecht, Holland
   FF    E MajorE     FF    G+G
Then got on a flight for London, England

A augmentedA G+G FF E MajorE FF G+G
