chordband » Chris Stapleton » Scarecrow In The Garden

[Intro :]
C#m E C#m E C#m E B C#m

[Verse :]
        C#m                  E
Well he came from Northern Ireland
      C#m                    E
Searching for the free man's ground
        C#m                E
And he came to bet his fortune
    B              C#m B C#m
On a West Virginia plow
      C#m              E
He built a house of timber
      C#m            E
And raised a redhead son
            C#m                E
Then they worked the land together
      B                    C#m
And prayed the rain would come

^CHORUS ]==
|             A                E
| There's a scarecrow in the garden
|       B            C#m
| That looks like Lucifer
|               A              C#m
| And I've been reading Revelations
|         B                C#m
| With my bare feet in the dirt

[Instrumental :]
E C#m E C#m E B C#m

[Verse :]
            C#m              E
Well the redhead's son got older
      C#m              E
And took a brown eyed wife
          C#m                  E
And the fields were green as dollars
            B                C#m
Cause the dirt was black as night
  C#m              E
I came in late September

      C#m            E
The youngest one of three
        C#m              E
And my sisters off and married
        B          C#m
So the land was left to me

^REPEAT CHORUS ]==
|             A                E
| There's a scarecrow in the garden
|       B            C#m
| That looks like Lucifer
|               A              C#m
| And I've been reading Revelations
|         B                C#m
| With my bare feet in the dirt

[Bridge :]
        B
I know every single fencepost
      A                C#m
Every rock that goes around
            B
I've been staring at the red oak
        A                  C#m
Where I know they'll lay me down

[Verse :]
    C#m                    E
The fields ain't what they once were
    C#m                E
The rains just seem to flood
                C#m                  E
And I've been thinking about that river
          B              C#m
Wondering how it turns to blood

[Outro :]
        C#m                E
I've been sitting here all morning
      C#m              E
I was sitting here all night
        C#m                E
There's a bible in my left hand
      B            C#m
And a pistol in my right
