'Twas just a garden in  the rain  
 D   C°  C#m7(b5)        F#7 
Close to a little leafy lane,  
D Bm7(b5) E7  A      F#m  Bm7(b5) E7  A    F#m  D  C°  E7 
A touch of color 'neath skies of gray. 
  

A   C°    E7    A         Bm7(b5)   A7  
The rain - drops kissed the flower beds;  
D   C°     C#m7(b5)               F#7 
The blossoms raised their thirsty heads.  
D Bm7(b5)     E7         Bm7(b5) C°      A 
A perfumed "Thank you" they seemed to say. 
  
Bridge:

Surely here was charm beyond com - pare   to  view;  
G#m7  Bm7(b5)    A       G#m7   C#m   G#7   E7 
Maybe  it was just that I was there with you.

'Twas just a garden  in the rain,  
D   C°     C#m7(b5)         F#7 
But then the sun came out again  
D   Bm7(b5)    E7    Bm7(b5) C°  A 
And sent us happily  on  our  way.
