Chords and Lyrics Chris Stapleton - Scarecrow In The Garden


Artist : Chris Stapleton
Song : 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

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
