LYRICS and CHORDS

(Em) When the sorry state of the world is getting to you
(C) Apocalyptic prophecies seem more and more true
(D) You're counting the trees as they fall to earth in twos (and tens of thousands)
(Em) And you're feeling despair and sorrow, sad and blue
(Em) And you're watching your toilet sucking down
(C) Many gallons of water to the ocean
(D) Far away from the dry bare earth there's
(Em) Just one thing that we can do, there's just one thing that we can do...

(G) Let's grow our own garden, many (D) seeds we will sow
Dig the (C) swales, mulch the (D) earth and watch the (G) worms frolic (D) to and fro
Let's (G) grow our own garden, (D) restore the earth to whole
Harvest the (C) rain, share the (D) fruits and a (G) community we'll grow

(D) The chickens are working (G) for us they're the (C) happiest of all
(D) The worms are bumping and (G) sliding, creating (C) fertile soil
(D) Our home is solar (G) passive in the (C) winter it is warm
(D) Our food forest (G) abundant, this (C) life we can (D) transform

(G) Let's grow our own garden, many (D) seeds we will sow
Dig the (C) swales, mulch the (D) earth and watch the (G) worms frolic (D) to and fro
Let's (G) grow our own garden, (D) restore the earth to whole
Harvest the (C) rain, share the (D) fruits and a (G) community we'll grow

(G) Care for the earth, (C) care for the (D) people
We can stand, use our hands, share food with this whole land!
