C/G
I gotta get home, there's a garden to tend
All the fruit's on the ground
Dm
And the birds have all moved back into my attic whistling static
C/G
When the young learn to fly I will patch all the holes up again
C/G
Well, I can't believe that my lime tree is dead
Dm
I thought it was sleeping, I guess it got fed up with not being fed
And I would be too I need food in my belly
C/G
And hope that my time isn't soon.
C/G Dm
So I try to understand what I can't hold in my hand
F G C/G
And whatever I find, I'll find my way back to you
C/G
And if you could try to find it too
Dm
'Cause this place has overgrown and it's a waxing moon
F G C/G
Home is wherever we are if there's love there too
C/G
In the back of my house there's a trail that won't end
I was walking so far that it grew back in
Dm
Now there's no trail at all, only grass growing tall
C/G
Get out my machete and battle with time once again
Dm C/G
But I'm 'bout to lose 'cause I'll be damned if time don't win
C/G
I gotta get home there's a garden to tend
All the seeds from the fruit buried and began
Dm
Their own family trees, teach them thank you and please
C/G
As they spread their own roots then watch the young fruit grow again
Dm C/G
This old trail will lead me right back to where it begins
C/G Dm
So I try to understand what I can't hold in my hand
F G C/G
And whatever I find, I'll find my way back to you
C/G
And if you could try to find it too
Dm
'Cause this place has overgrown and it's a waxing moon
F G C/G
Home is wherever we are if there's love there too
