Intro
(Riff 1)
Verse 1
(Riff 2)
I am walking up
To the place in the light
And the things I see
With the starlight sight
In the dance of the fires
In the flames I see
Under raven skies
She will sleep with me.
Pre-Chorus
(Rhythm fig.1)
And I need her know
And I need you...
Chorus
Welcome to my Garden
And what do ya see?
Welcome to my Garden
Do ya still see me?
(Riff 1)
Verse 2
(Riff 2)
I am looking through
Through the dance of the trees
I experience
What a sure man(?) sees
And I return within
I return with sight
Under raven skies
I will sleep tonight
Pre-Chorus
(Rhythm fig.1)
And I need her now
And I need you
Chorus
(same as before)

Outro
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 TEA PARTY 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.
