"She Wandered Through The Garden Fence"
(Gary Brooker - Keith Reid)
Intro:
(drum beat, 2 bars)
Verse 1:
G Bm/F#
She wandered through the garden fence
G7/F C
Said I've brought at great expense
(C) F
A potion guaranteed to bring
G
Relief from all your suffering
[2: And] though I said you don't exist
She grasped me firmly by the wrist
Threw me down upon my back
Strapped me to her torture rack
G7 C
And without further argument
Am D7sus4 D7
I found my mind was also bent
G7 C
Upon a course so devious
Am D7sus4 D7
It only made my torment worse
Verse 2:
She said I see you cannot speak
Is it your voice that is too weak
Is it your tongue that is to blame
Maybe you cannot speak for shame
Or has your brain been idle too
Now it will not think for you
I hastened to make my reply
Found that I could only lie
[3: And] Like a fool I believed myself
And thought I was somebody else
She could see what I was then
And left me on my own again
[repeat verse 2; organ solo over first eight lines]
[repeat verse 1]
Coda:
organ solo over verse chords [original LP pressing fades; CD
reissue ends cold after eighth line]
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official PROCOL HARUM tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
