Love Builds A Garden

Love Builds a Garden
Elton John / Bernie Taupin
from the “Gnomeo and Juliet” OST (2011)

Fm - G7 - C

            F/C   C
You hear it every day
 F/C          C
'Once upon a time' they say
Dm           E7
Once upon a time in this place
Am	      C/G
I looked and saw on your face
  Fm          C/G           G           C
A smile that spoke to me in oh so many ways

            F/C     C
The Sunday morning bells
F/C           C
Rang out that all was well
Dm           E7
Sun shone across the yard
Am             C/G
We'd rest when we worked hard
      Fm            C/G            G           C
We'd take a little time off to appreciate the day

                   F
And love builds a garden
 Bb		   Eb
Grew it from the ground up
 Ab             Db            Bb           Eb
Each one of us knowing every inch of it was us
    C/E             F
We pulled it all together
Bb            Eb
Hoping and believing
      Ab	      Db            C7            Fm
That love built this garden for the two of us to dream in

Fm - G7 - C

	    F/C     C
We'd get a little rain
 F/C              C
Then the sun came out again
Dm		  E7
But a frost it's hard to fight
Am	       C/G
Once it takes hold flowers die
	Fm           C/G            G		      C
There's only so much you can do to keep some things alive

(repeat chorus

Bbm		 Ab
Sad to say it's true
Eb        Fm
Without another who
Bbm
Cares as much
Ab		G7
Well I guess, I guess it goes to prove

C - F - Bb - Eb - Ab - Db - Bb

       C             F
That love builds a garden
Bb		    Eb
Grows it from the ground up
Ab		  Db           Bb            Eb
Each one of you knowing every inch of it is trust
     C/E           F
You pull it all together
Bb             Eb
Hoping and believing
      Ab            Db            C7             Fm
That love builds a garden for the two of you to dream in

Fm - G7 - C
