D            G      D   G     A         D
Inch by Inch Row by row gonna make this garden grow

G      A          D          Bm        Em       A7
all it takes is a rake and a hoe and a piece of fertile ground

D            G      D   G       A           D
Inch by Inch Row by row someone bless these seeds I sow

G       A         D                  G          A        D
someone warm them from below til the rain comes tumbling down



Verse 01:

D             G           D      G      A              D
Pulling weeds and picking stones we are made of dreams and bones

G      A        D          Bm        Em       A7
I feel the need to grow my own until the time is close ahead

D               G       D       G      A          D
Grain for grain sun and rain-Al I find my ways in nature's chain

G      A           D        G      A        D
I tune my body and my brain to the music of the land


(chorus)

D                   G            D    G          A                D
So, plant your rows straight and long,and temper them with prayer and song

G      A         D        Bm         Em       A7
Mother earth can keep you strong and give her love and care

D                              G      D    G    A          D
There was an old crow watching hunger-leaf from his virgin yonder tree

G             A           D        G       A        D
In my garden, I'm as free as that  feather theif up there
