JOHNNY'S GARDEN- Stephen Stills and Manassas
G5 C/G G7sus C/G G5 C/G G7sus C/G
G5 C/G G7sus C/G
There's a place I can get to
G5 C/G G7sus C/G
Where I'm safe from the city blues
G5 C/G G7sus C/G G5
And it's green and it's quiet
C/G G7sus C/G
Only trouble was I had to buy it
CHORUS:
C Csus2 C6+9 Csus2 C Em Em7
And I'll do anything I got to do
C Csus2 C6+9 Csus2 C Em
Cut my hair and shine my shoes
Em7 C Csus2 C6+9 Csus2 C Em
And keep on singin' the blues
Em7 C riff G5 C/G G7sus C/G
If I can stay here in Johnny's garden
As the swift bird flies over the grasses
Dipping now and then to take his breakfast
Thus I come and go and I travel
But I can watch that bird and unravel ...CHORUS
With his love and his sharing
He puts his life into beauty sharing
And his children are his flowers
And they give me peace in quiet hours ...CHORUS

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 STEPHEN STILLS 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.
