1. Here's to your garden, here's to your kids,

F C

I heard you were in the neighbourhood,

C F G

I've been a long time on the skids.

F C F C

And, baby, I'm beside you,

Dm C G

you run from the river, when it long ran over you.

F C F C

2. This is for you standing up to a bone-chilling wind,

F C C F G

this is for the failures you collected from my sin.

F C F C

And this is for your lonesome tears I never dried,

F C C F G

this is for you hanging in, in the hope that it never dies.

Dm Am F G

And, baby, I'm beside you,

Dm F Am G

you run from the river, when it long ran over you.

F C F C

3. This is for you waiting up, though the call never came,

F C C F G

for the milk of human kindnesses you collected from our dream.

F C F C

And this is for your lonesome tears I never dried,

F C C F G

this is for you hanging in, in the hope that it never dies.

And, baby, I'm beside you,

you run from the river, when it long ran over you.

4. This is for the traveler on a blinding desert road,

F C C F G

good fortune smile upon you and may love be your only load.

F C F C

And this is for the only one who could quell my burning rage,

F C C F G

to anyone whose been broken down and anyone seen better days.

Dm Am F G

Da da da dum, da dum, da dum,

Dm Am F G

Da da da dum, da dum, da dum.

G7 F Am F - G

And now I'm running here beside you,

G7 F Am Dm - G

and now I'm running here beside y......ou,

G7 F Am Dm - C

and now I'm running here beside y......ou.
