Fatal Flower Garden

C                       F               Am                E
It rained, it poured, rained so hard, rained so hard all day
C                     F           Am          E       Am
Till all the boys in our school came out to talk and play
C                 F             Am            E
Tossed the ball again so high, then again so low
        C             F      Dm          Am         E       Am
Till it fell into a flower garden where no one’s allowed to go
        E                       Am        F        Am
When a tipsy gypsy lady all dressed in yellow and green
            E                                       Am        F     E
Says, come here, come here my pretty little boy and get your ball again
        C               D         Dm   Am        C      D   E
No, I won’t come in I shan’t come in without my playmates all
       C                  D       Dm            Am      E         Am
Gonna get my father and tell him about it and then the tears shall fall

        E                                  Am     C     Am
Well, first she offered an apple sweet and then a tangerine
              E                              Am                Dm           E
Then she offered him a diamond that seemed to do the trick that enticed him in
              C                 D       Dm        Am        C        D   E
Well, she took him by his lily-white hand and she led him through the hall
        C           D     Dm          Am         Dm        E
She took him to an upper room where no one could hear him call
                Am      F       Dm      E       Am      F       E
No, not a soul
(There's an instrumental break here, these are the chords I play, you can play whatever)

C              F               Am               E
Bury the Bible at my feet the testament at my head
    C                      F      Dm           Am            E    Am
If my dear father should call for me won’t you tell him that I am dead
C               F                   Am             E
Bury the Bible at my head
and the testament at my feet
    C                      F      Dm            Am            E    F
If my dear mother should call for me won’t you tell her that I’m asleep
(You could also end on an Am, or even a Dm, each has a different effect)
