           Gm      A#       A   Gm A
And he was walking in the garden
And he was walking in the night
And he was singing a sad love song
And he was praying for his life

          Gm        A#   D#
And the stars came out around him
He was thinking of his sins
And he's looking at his song-bird
And he's looking at his wings

There, inside the garden
Came another with his lips
Said "Won't you come and be my lover?
Let me give you a little kiss"

And he came knelt down before him
And fell upon his knees
"I will give you gold and mountains
If you stay a while with me"

Chorus:
                F    D#
And there was trouble
         Gm
Taking place
  F    D#
Trouble
         Gm
Taking place

There, inside the garden
They kissed and the sun rose
And he walked a little further
And he found he was alone

And the wind it gathered round him
He was thinking of his sins
And he's looking for his song-bird
He was looking for his wings

Chorus:
And there was trouble
Taking place
Trouble
Taking place
And there was trouble
Taking place
Trouble
Taking place
