C               Em                 Fmaj7 G
The fields are always wet with rain
                 C     Em
After a summer shower
       Fmaj7          G
when I saw you standin'
                 C     Em
Standin' in the garden,
       Fmaj7 G          C F C G
in the garden wet with rain

You wiped the teardrops from your eye in sorrow
As we watched the petals fall down to the ground
And as I sat beside you I felt the
Great sadness that day in the garden

And then one day you came back home
You were a creature all in rapture
You had your key to your soul
And you did open that day you came back to
the garden

The olden summer breeze was blowin'
against your face
(Alright)
The light of the Lord's shinin' on your
countenance divine
And you were a violet colour as you
Sat beside your father and your mother in
the garden

The summer breeze was blowin' on your face
Within your violet you treasure your summery words
And as the shiver from my neck down to my spine
Ignited me in daylight and nature in the garden

And you went into a trance
Your childlike vision became so fine
And we heard lil' bells within the church
We loved so much
And felt the presence of the youth of
Eternal summers in the garden
(Alright)

And as it touched your cheeks so lightly
Born again you were and blushed
And we touched each other lightly
And we felt the presence of the Christ
Within our hearts in the garden

And I turned to you and I said
No guru, no method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature
And the Father in the garden
Listen

No guru, no method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature
And the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost
In the garden wet with rain
No guru, no method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature
And the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost
In the garden
In the garden wet with rain

Yeah, alright
No guru, no method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature
And the Father in the garden
