Melanie Martinez - Garden

[Intro]
Dm Bb A

[Verse 1]
Dm
I put the seeds down thinking they would grow sprouts
Bb
You brought the sun out, watered all my past droughts
A Dm
Never would assume you’d consume all the fruit then just drop out
Bb
Didn’t wanna grow, there’s a cop out
A
Pulling all the roots and the crops out

[Pre-Chorus]
Bb
You should cultivate more patience
A
Bit the apple when temptation hit
Dm Bb
Blamed it on your inexperience
A Dm
Never gonna change if you don’t practice it, ah-ah

[Chorus]
Bb A
Left me all by myself to let the garden grow
Dm
Planted a seed and ran

Hey, where’d the water go?
Bb A
Lay me on a bed of dead roses though
Dm
Dug out a hole and sowed, that’s where your body goes

[Post-Chorus]
Bb
Garden, it won’t grow
A
Tied the hose, off you go
Dm
Next time you jump the gun, better be walking slow
Bb
Garden, it won’t grow
A
Tied the hose, off you go
Dm
Next time you jump the gun, better be walking slow

[Verse 2]
Dm
You don’t belong here, fucking up my fresh air
Bb
I was on my hands and knees, you were in a lawn chair
A Dm
Pissing on the soil that you spoiled, I was loyal to a coward
Bb
You were just a thorn on my flower
A
You checked out, I was putting in the hours

[Pre-Chorus]
Bb
You should cultivate more patience
A
Bit the apple when temptation hit
Dm Bb
Blamed it on your inexperience
A Dm
Never gonna change if you don’t practice it, ah-ah

[Chorus]
Bb A
Left me all by myself to let the garden grow
Dm
Planted a seed and ran

Hey, where’d the water go?
Bb A
Lay me on a bed of dead roses though
Dm
Dug out a hole and sowed, that’s where your body goes

[Post-Chorus]
Bb
Garden, it won’t grow
A
Tied the hose, off you go
Dm
Next time you jump the gun, better be walking slow
Bb
Garden, it won’t grow
A
Tied the hose, off you go
Dm
Next time you jump the gun, better be walking slow
