A
[Verse 1]
AI saw the beauty of the harbor
AAnd the stillness of the water
Bm AI wondered if our daughter could also see it
AAnd you were howling in the corner
AWhile the doctor asked us questions
Bm AThe name we chose is all you kept repeating
[Bridge]
EThe drive home was unbearable
F#mThe baby seat held nothing but a feeling
Bm EOur greatest joy had come into the world
AThe same day she would leave it
[Verse 2]
AMy eyes became a window
AYou were looking through for comfort
BmLike an animal in winter, seeking shelter
AAnd when we pulled into the driveway
AOf the home we built together
Bm AIt felt so far from the plans that we conceived
[Bridge]
EThe door cried when it opened
F#mAnd every wall sounded like it was grieving
Bm EAn echo in the darkness said you're home
AAnd in the Garden of Leaving
F#m C#m D E
[Verse 3]
AAs the lights began to flicker
AOnly briefly apparent
Bm AThe time between each flash became a mirror
AAnd standing in the kitchen
AWith a hundred miles between us
Bm AWondering if we'd ever try again
[Bridge]
EWill I ever lose this part of me?
F#mIs it circumstance or irony repeating?
Bm EKnowing we were born and forced to stay
AIn the Garden of Leaving
